They have been previously recorded in IL65 (Clifden & Cleggan area) and IL75 (Letterfrack & Kylemore area) in past Atlas's but I haven't had any joy in locating any. Had three different Badgers though including one that was so blind it walked straight up to my car while I was parked along a laneway with me standing outside the car and the headlights on. You could hear the click clack of its claws as it trodded along on the tarmac. Its no wonder so many are hit on the roads.Dermot</blockquote>
