Records of climbing by Asian Badger Meles leucurus in the Republic of Korea

Abstract

This note describes several records of climbing behaviour by Asian Badger Meles leucurus, both wild and captive animals, in the Republic of Korea (South Korea). The Asian Badger is one of the less well-known members of the family Mustelidae, and this note adds to the limited knowledge of the species’s behaviour and potential ability to access alternative food resources.
