I was doing a fair speed (90ish) in my very low mk2 and hit a badger once....way before i new much about fixing cars (luckily), i had my mechanic re-attach the brake lines, re-fit the exhaust fit a new bumper and clean the blood and fur that had balled up around anything slightly obtrusive, they are hard as nails though, i must have dragged the thing from 90-0 (which on standard 1300 brakes was a long way) it left a clear trail of gooo all the way....Stupid animals!!
