Badgers? We don’t need no stinkin’ badgers!
A badger in Germany got so drunk on over-ripe cherries it staggered into the middle of a road and refused to budge, police said on Wednesday. A motorist called police near the central town of Goslar to report a dead badger on a road — only for officers to turn up and discover the animal alive and well, but drunk.
Police discovered the nocturnal beast had eaten cherries from a nearby tree which had turned to alcohol and given the badger diarrhoea. Having failed to scare the animal away, officers eventually chased it from the road with a broom.

I dunno. I think chasing the poor beast with a broom was a bit inhumane. Why not just offer the little fellow a cup or two of coffee?
Oh good — an ALERT drunken badger!
Is “drunken badger” a martial arts form? Sounds like it should be… badgers can be really mean…
Badgers are really cool people, if cranky.
