Badgers. I don't know what yours are like but here, if the ground is growling, you run. We have those wolverines too. Stay out of their way. And if you're walking in the woods, you have to talk loud to yourself and friends. That scares the bears away. Startle one and it won't like you, one bit. Wild cats too but they're elusive. They exist, you never see them but if you do, they're running away. And so many different kinds of birds I still haven't learned all their names. They make it sound like living in a jungle here during summer. It's awesome.
And yes for sure, roadways and wildlife don't mix. Hitting a moose here is more like the moose hitting you. They don't usually run out in front like deer do though. I nearly hit a buck while traveling back roads/trail on my dirt bike. It then decided to take the same path as me, so we raced for a bit until he darted off into the woods again.
I've never seen a live badger, not even the one I hit, as they are pretty shy animals and tend to avoid humans. We don't have much that would attack you.
A friend hit a deer on his motorbike and broke a few bones. I've come close a couple of times.
When I was eleven years old, I had a smaller dirt bike, kid size 80cc. I hit a cow calf on the farm, traveling down my wooded trail. Crazy thing ran out from some brush. It was fine, but I wasn't. Broke both the clutch lever and front brake lever on the handlebars.
Plus I had to explain to dad...
