We depend on sightings of badgers to identify where the species still occurs. Roadkill badgers provide vital information, so we need to retrieve dead badgers as soon as possible after they have been struck.
Report any dead badgers you see using the REPORT IT HERE link on this page.
In 2001, a Federal Badger Recovery Team was formed in response to population declines. The BC badger population is thought to have declined over the past several decades based on historic persecution, reported low recruitment, high road mortality in certain regions, and anecdotal reports from landowners citing badgers becoming less common over the past 20 years.
