Given that the book I just finished centers around the joy of badgers (tanukis, specifically), I think that Tom Robbins might take exception to that statement.

Villa Incognito. More badgers, fewer disturbing illustrations of hairy 1970's Man. No glossary at the end.

Oooh, tanukis are ace! I love Miyazaki's tanuki anime.

I've never seen any. The tanukis sounded cute (if occasionally vicious) from the description in the book - I'll have to look up the anime.
