Wikipedia article

This article is about an older version of DF.
A small mammal with a striped face. It lives in groups and is ferocious in combat.

A small mammal (about half the size of a dog), badgers distinguish themselves from the common pack critter that occasionally wanders onto your map by their Prone To Rage feature. This means that badgers occasionally go berserk when they see your dwarves or livestock instead of fleeing like the typical mountain goat will.

Badgers that are enraged will hunt down common peasant dwarves going about their business on the surface, disrupting early fortress setup procedures as they force a terrified dwarf to run to the edge of the map before being cornered by the badger.

Fortunately, it's still a small and fairly harmless creature due to its size and lack of any notable form of attacks, and a common unarmed dwarf will probably cripple it with a single kick. (Which is not to say that a badger can't get lucky, but it mostly seems to be limited to bruises and scratches.)

If you are attacked by aggressive badgers early on while still digging out your fort, consider training some of your dogs to be wardogs - a wardog is more than a match for a badger, and spares you the need to set a valuable soldier dwarf to badger-hunting duty.
