White tails aren't venomous, but their fangs contain bacteria that causes necrosis. Believe me, i've seen it. One of my friends was bitten a couple of years back on his right hand and the skin turned black and peeled off. And it stank.

Nothing like getting the Rot to make your day.  At least he didn't have his fat melted off, or suddenly bleed out everywere like some syndromes ... what? oh, this wasn't in game?  :D

Lived in coastal VA area of the US for quite a while.  I like the wolfspiders because they hunt just about every other small critter around (including those noisy crickets).  I highly disliked the brown recluse (necrotizing venom) and black widows, however, for obvious reasons.

Here in South Dakota we don't take kindly to badgers, I once chased one down in my grandfathers pickup truck going about thirty miles and hour, ran the badger over and it was still alive, shot it with my 22-250 browning and it was still alive and coming right for me. If you've never been face to face with a ran over shot badger its terrifying. Finally after a couple more shots It finally succumbed to death. But man that was an expeerience. They were quite the nuisance for farmers here, since they dig decent sized burrows and cause much grief for farmers and their fields.

I think the US army is busy exterminating farming crundles in their underground fortresses.

Talking about badgers, one disadvantage that that particular animal has is its lack of speed. The European badger can't really do much about this, but the North American badger can as it occasionally forms a working relationship with the common coyote, one of the fastest and most cunning predators in North America.

If England had coyotes, the badgers would have taken over there years ago.
