These vicious creatures tolerate no intrusions. They cannot burrow into solid rock, but can move through just about any material softer than that. A dire
badger usually leaves behind a usable tunnel 5 feet in diameter when burrowing unless the material it's moving through is very loose.
Dire badgers attack with their sharp claws and teeth.
Rage (Ex): A dire
badger that takes
damage in
combat flies into a berserk
rage on its next turn, clawing and biting madly until either it or its opponent is dead. It gains +4 Strength, +4 Constitution, and -2 AC. The creature cannot end its
rage voluntarily.
