What are badgers predators?

You mean Eurasian Badgers? Eurasian Badgers have few predators and competitors. They are known for being as tenacious as hell and they are very durable. Eurasian Badgers compete with Raccoon Dogs, Red Foxes, Eurasian Lynx and the Wolverine. Brown Bears, Siberian Tigers, Wolves, and Eurasian Lynx are the only carnivores that are brave enough to prey on badgers. Red Foxes may prey on young badgers, but adult badgers mostly dominate foxes. Eurasian Lynx may pose a threat to badgers, but killing one might be hard. Raccoon Dogs may extensively use badger setts for shelter, but badgers will kill or drive out Raccoon Dogs if they overstay their welcome. As for American Badgers, they also have few predators. But because they are smaller and weaker than Eurasian Badgers, they might have slightly more predators. Predators of the Eurasian Badger are Cougars, wolves, coyotes, bobcats, bears and Canadian lynx.
