A species of badgers is protected by law in the UK but their burrows can cause significant damage, undermining structures. At one site in Bexhill, East Sussex the problem was handled with a geophysics solution, ground penetrating radar to locate the badger burrows. Then a badger-proof barrier was installed at depth in a trench to protect the structures without harming the badgers. [Source: Farming UK news. Image: Farming UK News]
