Foxy to the zoo part 7
The wolverine and the European badger
 
In this site I will tell about the wolverine (Gulo gulo) in the zoo in Lycksele, and the European badger. (Meles meles),
2006-07-25. This is a wolverine in the zoo in Lycksele. This picture went blurry because the wolverine was running so fast and was later hiding in the bushes. The wolverine was carrying a bit of food that he got from the zoo keeper.
2007-08-06. Here I got a better picture but it was taken with the telephoto lens.
2007-08-06.  Waiting for more food.
2007-08-06. At the right you can see a bit of the zoo keeper. He was telling about this animal. He told the wolverine is a predator  is bad in killing it's prey. This sounds very cruel.

1997. Lennart put up his hand then the badger went climbing after his hand. It looked so funny and Lennart was amused.
