Media reviews

Review of the first edition:

"Provides a succinct summary, from first-hand experience, of all aspects of the life of this ancient, but largely unfamiliar, member of our much-diminished native fauna [...] In this excellent series of monographs the authors achieve a very pleasing use of a light touch to convey serious information, both in text and illustrations."
– The Guardian

"Succeeds in presenting a good deal of information in a very readable and entertaining fashion. An informative and amusing book."
– RSPCA Today

"Will appeal to all nature lovers whatever their age or interest [...] As the reader's knowledge of badgers develops, the text becomes increasingly compelling."
– Times Educational Supplement

"Anyone reading this book will become a badger expert."
– Animals International
