Sound on for Muddy nose - there are more Muntjac deer than any other deer in the woodlands and their bark is very distinctive #severnsidesett @loveday-p.bsky.social @badgertrust.bsky.social @badgercrowd.bsky.social @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social @nationaltrust.org.uk #wildlife

Who knew? White undergarments! As this young female badger scratches you can see the colour of the under fur which is white #severnsidesett @badgertrust.bsky.social @loveday-p.bsky.social @the-wildlifetrusts.bsky.social #wildlife #ukwildlife #badger
