| 释义 | 〔badger〕Our name for the Eurasian species of this mammal, which is noted for championing its burrow just like a knight of old,may come from the badger's knightly emblem.The creature's white head with a broad black stripe on each side of the snout may have brought to mind a badge,hence the namebadger.
