How to Draw a Badger
Learn how to draw a badger easily and beautifully. A step-by-step guide consisting of ten simple instructions.
We bring to your attention a simple instruction on how to draw a badger. In the picture, you see a cute cartoon badger.
The badger is a predatory mammal that is a member of the mustelid family. Animal badger is an amazing creature that combines an unusual appearance, docile nature and considerable economic benefits.
The badger lives in almost the entire territory of Europe, except for only the north of Finland and the Scandinavian Peninsula, since it does not live on freezing soils. Also, the animal badger lives in Asia Minor, in the Armenian Highlands, as well as in the Caucasus.
The badger’s home is his hole. Badgers live in deep burrows that they dig on the slopes of gullies, ravines and hills, high banks of rivers or lakes. The badger lives by spending most of its time in a burrow. In areas where there is an abundance of food, different families of badgers can form an entire city of badgers by combining their holes with each other. Each subsequent generation of badgers completes the construction of holes, breaking through new passages and expanding ancestral possessions. So badger burrows turn into an underground city with dozens of exits.

How to Draw a Badger
- Draw the head.
Begin by drawing the outline of the badger’s head. Make the muzzle of the badger pointed and elongated. In addition to the head, add a round eye, as in the example.
- Add parts of the face.
This step shows how to draw the mouth, nose, and pupil of the cartoon badger.
- Detail the head.
Using curved lines, draw the stripes on the badger’s face. Also draw the fur of the badger’s head.
- Draw the ears.
Using the example from the step, draw small semicircular badger ears.
- Draw the badger’s body.
Extend two lines from the head and form the badger’s body as shown in the example.
- Add legs.
Now draw the front and back legs of the badger. Draw the badger’s feet pointed, because the badger’s claws are sharp and help him dig holes.
- Draw the second part of the legs.
As you already understood from the example from the step, you need to draw the second far part of the badger’s legs.
- Add badger claws.
Using curved lines, draw the badger’s claws as in the example. You also need to texture the badger’s fur as shown.
- Draw the tail.
Draw the fluffy badger tail using two lines. The top line should be curved, and the bottom line should be furry.
- Color the drawing of a badger.
To color the cartoon badger, use various shades of gray. In addition to coloring, you can outline the pencil sketch using a fountain pen or ink.
