God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

Honey Badger Spoor
There are five toes on the fore- and hind-feet; the claws on front feet are elongated and strong, with a length of 35 mm. Those on the back feet are much shorter and more lightly built. The intermediate pads are fused, and a proximal pad on each of the fore- and hind-feet is characteristic of its spoor. In soft mud the five toes, the intermediate pads and the proximal pads show clearly in the spoor.
