Badger

Badgers, Honey badger, Badger sett

Badgers are stocky, striped diggers that build huge underground homes called setts, sometimes used by the same family for generations. A badger dream often has to do with persistence, home and a fierce determination to guard your own turf. Small as it is, a badger will stand its ground against much larger animals, so it may show courage you never knew you had. To "badger" someone means to pester them until they give in, which can point to a matter that you, or someone else, simply won't let drop. Spotting a badger at dusk is a rare treat, a reminder of quiet strength close to home.
