Based on real events of a Badger absolutely wreaking havoc in Emily's family garden one night, this begged the question as to why Badger's along with other wildlife, were encroaching more upon urban areas. One conclusion being that Badger's are driven out of their natural environments by Badger culling's. 'Barry the Bandit' is a self-initiated children's picture book project following the journey of a Badger named Barry, and how he earns a reputation as a Bandit.
