This old Badger has one difficult personality, especially with whom tries to break his peaceful living inside his den. Tod met him after being left by Widow Tweet as he was seeking repair from the storm and the only place he found was the badger's den. No need to say that Tod's staying was soon interrupted by the Badger, who arrogantly sent Tod outside, rain or not. He is very territorial and told Tod to get away from the forest, since he never lived there and so he had no right to try to steal someone else's home (even if Tod didn't know who was the owner of the den or if there was someone inside).
