Badger Fetish

Made from Calcite this fetish is well carved with a smooth polish. To the Zuni the badger is associated with the South. The badger dominates the activities of husbandry and agriculture, relatively small but fierce and tenacious and has been known to prevail over animals far larger, as such they can be counted on in tight situations to display boldness and perseverance. Badger represents passion and persistence. He will not give up until he has reached a desired goal. Living close to the ground, he has great knowledge of the earth.
