Bailenese Stink Badger

The Bailenese Stink Badger is a terrestrial mammal found in Baileneu Ma, despite its name, it is not part of the family, instead a member of the  family. It can squirt a foul-smelling, mildly caustic liquid from glands in its rear in order to escape from predators in the wetlands of Baileneu Ma, hence its name 'Stink Badger'. A short but stocky animal, it has large spines along its back used to further deter predators, and is capable of assuming a bipedal stance when threatened, although it primarily uses quadrupedal movement. It is primarily a fungivore, although it also feeds on plant roots and bulbs, insects and carrion, where it uses long, trough like claws to dig through earth in order to find food. Primarily nocturnal, it rests in burrows underneath trees and in small caves, living in packs of 4-7, where members of a pack have been observed taking shifts as watchmen during periods of rest. Bailenese Stink Badgers have extremely potent olfactory senses, which it uses to track down and locate potential food, using its long, hog-like snout. Bailenese Stink Badgers are rarely preyed on by predators, although some Caneptids, alligators and big cats have been observed killing and eating these badgers, and are also culled by many tribes as they are viewed as pests and 'unclean'.
