sett
rhymes with "bet"
A badger's burrow — not a simple hole but an elaborate underground complex of tunnels, chambers, and entrances, often used by successive generations for decades or centuries. Setts can have dozens of entrances, multiple sleeping chambers, and latrine areas set away from the living quarters. The oldest known setts in England have been in continuous use for hundreds of years. A sett is a family estate, inherited and expanded generation by generation.
Etymology
Probably from Old English set, a seat or dwelling place. The badger's seat — its fixed address.
Notes
Badger latrines — shallow pits at the edge of the sett's territory — are one of the most reliable signs of badger presence.
