The Life of Honey Badgers | Predator Mondays | National Geographic Wild UK

Honey badgers have to survive on their own after spending the first 14 months of their lives with their mothers. Their first challenge is tackling the heat while facing threats from bigger predators. There is nothing to fear though as honey badgers are armed with a formidable array of offensive and defensive weapons like claws that never stop growing.

I just love Honey Badgers and Wolverines. Their tenacity is just outstanding. I cannot get enough of watching documentaries about them. Just fascinating.

Honey badgers are known for their remarkable toughness and fearless ness. They are so Stoic, so determined, clever and confident to tackle any situation and condition

Imagine if honey badger lives in group instead of being solitary animal

[---wczp]

Imagine a Honey Badger is as big as a Kodiak or Polar Bear, I think the animals (Prey or even Predators) in Africa would go extinct much quicker...lol

The Commentary in this is 2nd to None. So expertly delivered and masterful of providing mind stimulation ❤

“…This tiny rodent is the master of Hide & Seek. Unfortunately Honey Badgers don't play games” XD
How to realize a whole documentary just with one-liners :D

God Almighty I wanna pet one but it would probably murder me

[ophirbactrius]

Sometimes i felt so sadly for a tiny and vulnerably honey bagder who desperately with starvation seeking for food but sadistically at the same time when facing an apex predators like a pride of lion or a gang of spotted hyena. 😢😢

I think honey badgers and Tasmanian devils would be excellent models for obsessive and aggressive human personality disorders. These traits are adaptive for these animals though.

If A Honey Badger could be adapted as a pet, i would have one?, and if my neighbor starts becoming a Karen or Ken, i would release my beloved Honey Badger on them.

"When you are on everybody's menu" - That how I feel!

If you combine a skunk + wolverine + european badger = you get a badass large and in charge honey badger.

They can and do get into some of the most critical situations and never have to call for backup...

[giovannigraglia]

A mio giudizio è un animale favoloso, con nessuna paura nel combattere con predatori molto più grandi e potenti. Ha tutta la mia approvazione e stima. Se sono in coppia possono sfidare qualsiasi felino.

Their hair cut looks like a mullet, 😂😂
