Badgers are among the animals you will find in Horizon Zero Dawn: Frozen Wilds can hunt. They can be found in various locations in the new area and their skin/fur and bones are used for crafting materials. They are white which is why they are often difficult to spot in all the snow. What’s more, they are rather rare. Read on to learn where you can farm badger bones and hides to make hunting easier.
Locations of badger skins and bones
Unlike what other games have taught us, badgers are in Horizon Zero Dawn quite peaceful and safe. If you approach them, they will try to run away. But since they have short legs and the snow is quite deep, they are not very fast. That’s why hunting is all about knowing where to find them. Badgers are unlikely to be able to escape Alloy, but they are quite difficult to spot even if you stand close to them.
Since these animals are rare, you should invest a point in the Expert Carver skill, which increases the chance of animal parts being dropped. A really easy lair to farm is in the Cut. It is located on the southern edge of this region, a little east of the passage that connects it to the rest of the map. You should definitely use the scanner to locate the exact location of the badgers as they are really easy to miss.
