MOSCOW, July 8 (RIA Novosti) - A dead animal lying in a road in the German state of Lower Saxony turned out to be a drunk badger taking a nap, a German online paper said on Wednesday citing police in Goslar.When police officers arrived at the scene late on Monday to remove the body, which was blocking traffic, they were stunned to find that the animal was not dead or injured, the Local reported.
"Right in the middle of the street there was a badger sitting and staring at the officers incredulously," a police statement said, the Local reported.
The officers discovered that the animal, which was not frightened by their presence, had been snacking on overripe cherries from a nearby tree, the paper said.
"The animal's belly digested the fruit to alcohol, and the badger was, as the saying goes, 'drunk as a blackbird'," the statement said, adding that the badger was also suffering from "diarrhoea containing cherry pits."
Officers directed the badger off the road, where he could "sleep off his intoxication in a meadow," the paper said.
