This interactive map will display the range of each known species of badger. Click on the species buttons surrounding the globe. The button you select will be "darkened", and an overlay placed on the map showing its range. (Map buttons are not available through Babel Fish translation.) Text will appear in this box indicating range details, when available. The three most widely-ranged species, taxidea taxus, mellivora capensis and meles meles have been segregated at the base of the map. The range overlays have been averaged between sources where conflicting, and should not be taken as precise guides. Also, maps give no indication of population density in these regions, nor is any such data currently available. Source data is credited on the where page. These maps were last updated on 15th June, 2002, but source information may be considerably older.
