Officials trying to identify a creature photographed in Texas may have landed on the answer following an investigation.
“With such an abundance and diversity, Texas is a great place to watch wildlife!” the site reads.
Per an edit on the state park’s initial post, the agency said the image got tons of attention and told followers, “We agree with most of the comments that this is very likely an American Badger .” A park visitor apparently snapped the photo; therefore, officials did not have the animal’s exact location in the area.
“While American Badgers are not commonly seen in the valley , this is part of their natural range,” the post read.American badgers are part of the weasel, and they have a white stripe from the nose to their shoulders, according to Texas Parks and Wildlife: The badger is an excellent digging machine and uses this skill to burrow after it’s prey, small mammals, snakes and other reptiles, birds and some insects. Their claws are long and sharp and they have a reputation for ferociousness when attacked. Badgers will hunt in open country and pursue their prey into burrows with amazing speed and power. They have few non-human predators.
