Watch: Golf course left badly damaged by badgers

Video showed a golf course left badly damaged by badgers digging for food during the drought.

The owner of Clare Park Lake Golf Course in Clare, Suffolk found the greens covered in holes and earth.

Susan Moore said the animals had left parts of the course "churned up and like a ploughed field".

Badgers are attracted to golf courses during dry weather because watered ground is soft enough for them to dig.
