I’ve seen plenty of dead badgers in the middle of the road.
And every dead badger I have ever checked has appeared to be a genuine road-killed Badger. Badger baiters(as long as they kill badgers at the sett where they have dug them) usually bury the bodies in the hole they have dug, to take the badgers out).
So I would say that most badgers bodies on roads are road-kill. With the odd exception.
I’ve come across foxes, badgers, hares, squirrels, hedgehogs, rabbits
, owls & other bird species all of which have been hit by cars but not killed. It’s disappointing that people leave them lying suffering by/on the road.
