Badger Brock is a powerful badger, so powerful that he ambushes Tom Bombadil and brings him into his home. There, Badger Brock declares that he wants to eat him. Tom Bombadil then shows forth his true power and Badger Brock (with his wife and many kids), decide to let him go--realizing that they are no match for his power. Badger Brock is also present at the wedding of Tom Bombadil and Goldberry.
