While out foraging I found a patch of big nice chantarelles, we have a good year for them btw. Then I noticed something strange, a hole into the mound. It wasn’t there last year I know yhat for sure.
Well… Looks like I pilfered someone’s nicely cultivated mushrooms. Sorry.
Badger hole?
I hope so. Other option would be fox. Boar I don’t think, too small. And I really don’t want it to have been a boar burrow as it wouldn’t then been unlikely with piglets in it. With ANGRY mamma nearby…
A boar in a hole in the ground? I see a lot of wild boar but I’ve never heard of that. Seems like they would be very big for that, unless it’s like a whole cave?
I had gotten it into myself that boars make use of burrows. But I may be very, very wrong.
I think they just root around in the ground with their noses to find grubs and acorns and such, but no digging or living in holes. If the hole is really big, it’s probably a badger 🦡
