A large badger is reported to be causing girls to scream with delight.
They're so frightened they refuse to go out and play.
If the badger is killed, I'll be contacting the RSPCA and requesting the take legal action against the school.

An oversized badger is causing "hysteria" at a girls' school after charging at pupils during playtime.

Parents of pupils at the Folkestone School for Girls in Folkestone, Kent, say the large badger has been skulking around school grounds for the past two weeks.

One mother, who asked not to be named, said that a badger sett in the school grounds had been disturbed by recent building work and that the badgers were "causing hysteria" among pupils.

She said: "The badger has been spotted several times within the grounds, scaring the living daylights out of the teenage girls."

"It is a giant badger and it is causing hysteria – there are hundreds of screaming, hysterical girls."

Some pupils have told teachers they are too scared to walk across the school grounds in case the badger attacks them, with some pupils saying the badger was running at them during break times.

School chiefs said they had been alerted to the giant badger and that pupils had been told during an assembly to "stay away from it".

Head teacher Tracy Luke said: "We do have a badger sett in the school grounds, well away from school buildings."

They claim its a GIANT Badger?
So how did it get to that size then? My guess is that the school has been feeding it secretly on left over school dinners. Now they've encroached it's living area to extend buildings, it has taken offence and they're trying to say its obese and so I assume it should be killed?
SHAME.

Badgers are fekking huge anyway. they have probably never seen one which is why they think its a giant badger.

Rather than wanting to kill the thing they should be asking why a nocturnal animal is wandering about during the day, I'd guess at dehydration.

Hysterics indeed. If I was headmaster of that school I'd hang my head in shame.

Compared to a hamster maybe. :mrgreen:

They only weigh about 30lb so they can't be that big; just as a comparison my Boxer dog weighed about 70lb (and he wasn't fat).

I do know of a badger sett around my way but I don't go near it, found it by accident once.

I have seen a badger carcass at the side of the road near there, I think it came second in a fight with a car - and I will say it again, it was fekking massive - at least 4 foot or so in length, I wouldn't like to guess the weight of it for fear offending said dead badger. :lol:
