And thou shalt make a covering for the tent of ram's skins dyed red, and a covering above of badger's skins. Exodus 26:14.
The Hebrew word used here for badger is Tachash. It is used fourteen times in the Old Testament. It refers to: a kind of leather, skin, or animal hide, perhaps the animal yielding the skin, perhaps the badger or dugong, dolphin, or sheep.
I really don't know what the significance of that is, and I'm not in the least bit curious.
