The Wild Large Wooden Badger
With the growth of industrialization came the near extinction of the Large Wooden Badger. When wood supplies throughout parts of the world became scarce, the Large Wooden Badger was hunted by man for its wooden skin. While it doesn't make a very good coat, it does make an excellent floor.

The only place left in the world where Large Wooden Badgers are known to run free without danger of attack and dismanteling is the rain-forests of Brazil in the Amazon basin. There, trees and wood supplies are in great abundance thus keeping the Large Wooden Badger free from the attacks of humans.

The Domesticated Large Wooden Badger
These beasts tend to be very sedentary creatures which initially led scientists to believe that they would be subject to termite infestations. After careful examination, it has been discovered that the Large Wooden Badger has many small glands around its fingernails which secrete creosote, a transparent, oily liquid with a pungent odor used not only as an antiseptic but as a wood preservative. Thus, whenever the male Large Wooden Badger scratches itself it is actually applying a natural barrier for termites as well.
