What does a California Badger prey on?

The California badger is an opportunistic omnivore, with a diet that varies depending on food availability. It primarily feeds on small rodents, such as ground squirrels, pocket gophers, and mice. It also preys on insects, such as beetles, grasshoppers, and crickets, as well as fruits, nuts, and berries. Occasionally it will also scavenge on carrion.
