Description

A small genus of Mustelidae containing three species: the european_badger, asian_badger, and japanese_badger. The European badger (M. meles) is the most well-known of the three, with the Asian badger (M. leucurus) looking similar but lighter in color and the Japanese badger (M. anakuma) mostly brown in color instead of the usual black, white, and grey.
