In the world of wildlife, animals have to survive instinctively to survive. We thought tigers, leopards, lions, wolves… were the most aggressive animals. While honey badgers are the craziest, they can attack enemies above their own, or simply make war for fun.
The honey badger is a carnivore related to the weasel. But unlike their brothers with their characteristic “scent”, they are famous for their careless, reckless and somewhat “aggressive” nature. Because of its high adaptability to many different types of habitats, honey badgers are widely distributed around the world.
The recklessness of the honey badger if it comes in second is probably rare for any other animal that dares to claim to be invincible. They are ready to attack, compete for food with lions without fear, it has been recorded that 6 adult lions once had to back down in front of 2 honey badgers.
The honey badger has a rather long body of about 55-77cm, a shoulder height of about 23-28cm and a tail length of 12-30cm. Female honey badgers are usually slightly smaller than males. Males weigh between 9-16kg while female badgers weigh only 5-10kg. But honey badger is very agile and… reckless. Even the lions are not bored, it is too normal to steal food from foxes, hyenas and leopards.
So it is not surprising that we see a honey badger alone on an island of thousands of poisonous snakes. They are very bloody!!
The camera recorded it eating a snake, it looks delicious!
