tyler_mcclain925Description
This individual was seen driving south on 271. Adult Male. I found this badger hit on the side of the road and it had been there for a couple of days based on the state the animal was in. The specimen was collected by Cleveland Metroparks and will be collected by Ohio Division of Natural Resources in hopes of turning up more data about this individual.
