Brave American Badger takes on a Sub-Adult Grizzly Bear Profiles In Courage coloring pages

 I am continuing with our theme of bravery and being courageous... or our theme of 

Profiles in Courage!

So, I present to you an American Badger up against a Grizzly Bear!

This is the new post today!

American Badger takes on a Sub-Adult Grizzly Bear

An American badger only grows to maybe 30 inches long and perhaps about a foot tall.  They are brave mammals that will defend themselves against much larger predators.  In this is drawing there is a sub-adult male Grizzly Bear that weighs around 500 lbs.  The Grizzly Bear is wondering if the badger will be a good meal.  The badger is bravely standing up to the bear and will not back down.  The bear will soon decide that it would be best to find a safer prey.  

This shows amazing courage.  An adult badger weighs around 15 lbs.  That makes the bear 33 times heavier than the badger.  Yet if pressed or boxed in a badger will go on the attack to defend itself... even if the opponent is much larger.  To me that makes the Badger the bravest of all animals that live here in North America. 

Badgers live throughout North America.. especially in Western North America.  They live in open land, forests, and even at very high elevations up to 12,000 feet.
