back in the 1800s, miners dug tunnels into hillsides as they searched for lead and then lived in them during the winter months to keep warm. This reminded people of badgers and Wisconsin became known as the badger state.
Wisconsin's mascot is a badger because of the state's history during the 19th century when miners who worked in the lead mines were often referred to as "badgers." The term originated from the practice of miners living in temporary shelters, resembling burrows, similar to the homes of badgers. The badger has since become a symbol of resilience and determination, reflecting the hardworking spirit of Wisconsin's residents. Additionally, the badger is also the official state animal of Wisconsin.
