An angry badger has been threatening dog walkers and runners who stray onto his patch.
The animal has been seen chasing pets, their owners and other passers-by at Cannock Chase in Staffordshire.
Footage shows the badger chasing barking dogs in broad daylight - with one owner pleading for it to "go away" as they tried to remove their pooch.
The striped menace even chased one woman across a set of stepping stones and the RSPCA have been forced to issue a warning to keep away.
It said: "We would advise if anyone sees this badger behaving like this to keep a distance and to keep dogs well away.
"It may well be disoriented and could be unpredictable and aggressive."
Ben Clay, who filmed the manic badger while walking with his kids, told The Sun newspaper: "Someone walked past and said, 'Keep your dog on the lead as there is a badger wandering about.'
"I just kept an eye on the children and then looked up and saw it trotting down the path."
