Badgers live in family groups in setts which they occupy for almost their whole lives and which are sometimes used by successive generations. This is why these burrows are often complex structures, dividing repeatedly with many chambers, a labyrinth of passageways and several exits. Not all of these are used at the same time. These passageways can extend up to 5m underground. The entrances to this subterranean system are often protected only by a bush and are difficult to spot.

Schleich products are developed with the assistance of parents, teachers and children and are therefore especially designed for children’s hands. The design of Schleich products is as realistic and naturalistic as possible. This enables children to experience the large variety of nature – from domestic animals on a farm to wild animals in the jungle.
