Badger Badger Badger originally is a flash animation. To properly archive this, both the flash animation and a machine definition which can run that animation (eg: having a browser with flash plugin) should be stored, not just a video file.

So they posted Badgers assuming that means they've contacted the creator, so why does it say they still need to contact them to get the original files? Weird
Anyways, here's the original in the original format (well, emulated with Ruffle): flash animation.
