Abstract

The article presents the data on some aspects of ecology of eurasian badger (Meles meles) in the exclusion and resettlement zone of the “Polesie State Radiation-Ecological Reserve” (right bank of the Pripyat River). Using camera traps, the specific features of badger settlements, the daily and seasonal activity of species, species intraspecific and interspecific relations were revealed.
