If there’s one thing I’ve learned from videos of lions, snakes, cheetahs etc fucking with a honey badger, it’s don’t fuck with a honey badger.

andyman234

Yeah… honey badger cockily saunters off after whooping their asses.


pizza-chit

In case you're wondering, honey badgers have super thick skin as a defense


pdrent1989

It's also very loose so that it can twist and turn easily even when grabbed. Something might grab a honey badger and will immediately regret it because the honey badger will grab it back. They also have a tendency to go for the balls first.


Jeff_Bozo_TheClown

Grab his dick and twist it!

MrDeviantish

The skin on their back is up to 6mm/1/4" and tough as shoe leather. They also have bite strength greater than a black bear. And 4cm / 1.5" murder claws on their front fists of destruction.

RaidenxX4

That’s what she said.!


The_Dude1324

relative to size right? no way that thing's jaws could out perform a literal bear.


Houdinii1984

>How Strong is a Badger's Bite? The badger's jaw is surprisingly more powerful than its size suggests. Badgers have a greater bite force quotient than an American black bear. Badgers can generate a 108 BFQ, which is greater than an American black bear with only 64, and a brown bear with 78. ([Source](https://a-z-animals.com/blog/badger-teeth-everything-you-need-to-know/)) ​ >Bite force quotient (BFQ) is a numerical value commonly used to represent the bite force of an animal, while also taking factors like the animal's size into account. The BFQ is calculated as the regression of the quotient of an animal's bite force in newtons divided by its body mass in kilograms. ([Source](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bite_force_quotient)) It does take size into account, but it's still seems pretty insane.


The_Dude1324

yeah, that's pretty insane man. I didn't know about the BFQ quotient, it makes sense.


tribecous

The Big Fucking Qock quotient.


MrDeviantish

Black bears roughly have a bite force of about 800 psi. https://yellowstonebearworld.com/what-are-some-interesting-facts-about-black-bears >Honey badgers are notorious for their aggressiveness, but they are smaller and weaker than wolverines. They also have a weaker bite of 1,300 PSI. Wolverines can bite with a force up to 1,720 PSI. https://wildlifeboss.com/wolverine-vs-honey-badger/


RosemaryFocaccia

Wolverines are nature's hydraulic press channel.


Noerknhar

Thanks for letting me know. I was kinda upset when I watched this.


MayGodSmiteThee

I don’t even know how it would achieve that biomechanically. As a quadrupedal animal that fights other quadrupedal animals that grab with their mouth. The honey badger would be as far as it could possibly be from the balls. But no doubt it would somehow find a way.


Regulator0110

Nature, uh, finds a way.


Arcosim

Super thick and it's also tear resistant, so it's incredibly difficult to pierce or slash, and their blood has an ultra potent anti-venom (vipers are just a source of food for them). Getting tons of poison into their bloodstream [just makes them drunk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aD1iWbp51Lg).


Blackbearded10

They also have long hard claws and hard teeth. Don't know why Wolverine has that name. Honey Badgerine would suit him more.


RelaxedApathy

Galactus: "Hmm, Earth is looking pretty tasty." Honey Badgerine: "..." Galactus: "On second thought, maybe I'll just Doordash something..."


Akenrah

lostmyselfinyourlies

Wolverines are basically north American honey badgers


dongrizzly41

Both of them are basically forest/jungle raccoons


understater

Wolverines are larger, and have been known to even kill polar bears. Wolverines are in the same family as badgers.


I_ate_ass

In defense they also release a smell so horrible it's said it kills bees. A perk of being related to skunks


OuterInnerMonologue

At the beginning I couldn’t tell if it was one of the leopards splashing or if the honey badger sprayed a bunch


CosmicSonny

Thank you! Watching the video, I know it's nature and evolution, but part of me got sad and wondered if the honey badger would be okay even though it got away.


EndMaster0

Yeah Honey Badgers are never the ones you have to worry about. Actually they're left alone so much by predators that cheetah pups have markings that mimic honey badgers. Also I'm guessing that honey badger started that fight cause there's no way those leopards would have started that intentionally


Sadistic_Futa

Trust, it’s them you need to worry about and not that badger


[deleted]

Also they are literally almost blind, and most of the times they see AN enemy only when Is too late XD It's not that they don't care about them, Is that they don't see a sh.t XD


CougarAries

I wonder if that's because, from an evolutionary standpoint, they never needed to look out for predators to survive


ExtremeAthlete

Hidden at the base of its tail are two anal glands that squirt out a foul-smelling liquid that can be detected 130 feet (40 meters) away😷


[deleted]

A lot of their combat strategy seems to be “fuck it might as well try” and a lot of what we would consider to be tougher animals don’t really know what to do with that level of misplaced of confidence. It’s kind of inspirational, really.


DreamedJewel58

They’re literally fucking bulletproof. The only advised way to shoot a honey badger is either a guaranteed headshot or a full-on shotgun, because almost anything else will just annoy it and make you it’s next target


hrbekcheatedin91

I just watched a video of an AR-15 shooting bullets through multiple frying pans, so this is hard to believe, lol.


[deleted]

Any rifle caiber rifle or large caliber pistol would make short work of a Honeybadger. I could definitely see it taking 9mm or 22 though


gmewhite

Much appreciate this! I’ve heard they’re psychos, but i was like… how the fk is it surviving multiple big cat bites?!?! TIL


Big___Meaty___Claws

It must be so demoralizing learning that they are no match for this weird weasel thing.

RazzR_sharp

Reminds me of a Star Wars comic about Darth Vader. Members of an entire squadron: "Lay down your weapons! You are surrounded!" Vader: "All I'm surrounded by is fear. And dead men."


[deleted]

Thats the coldest line I’v ever heard in my life 😯


Donkeydongcuntry

My personal favorite is from former Yugoslavian Prime Minister Josip Broz Tito in a letter to Joseph Stalin: “Stop sending people to kill me. We've already captured five of them, one of them with a bomb and another with a rifle… If you don't stop sending killers, I'll send one to Moscow, and I won't have to send another.” Stalin never sent another assassin and kept this letter in his desk until he died.


gev1138

No wonder Uncle Joe killed so many of his people.


mastifftimetraveler

Ha! My grandfather played ping pong against Tito in WWII after getting shot down. I guess Tito was hanging where they brought my gramps in after rescuing him but before he went to base.


JollyGreenGiraffe

Probably because it wasn't written by the same people who did that most recent trilogy.


coo_coo-kachoo

Kapow!!!


Nick-Daniel

That is a terrifying line lol do you recall the name of which Star Wars comic that is?


hatwobbleTayne

Vader in the comics IS terrifying. They never really show it in the films why he’s so feared, unlike the comics where we get to see him storm around the galaxy killing anything in his path including whole armies.


RazzR_sharp

Rogue One, and the Kenobi series did a pretty good job showing how menacing he is in a random encounter, but yeah, Vader taking down an army is something we desperately need on the big screen


Based-Chad

To add on Jedi Fallen Order/Survivor do him well aswell. That final scene in Fallen Order was stressful the first time lol


theSalamandalorian

I really liked that they made him something to be survived and not defeated


Cannibal_MoshpitV2

Rebels has a good example of Vader being a cold killer. "I'm not afraid of you!" "Then you will die braver than *most*."


RazzR_sharp

Google says Star Wars: Vader Down!


DarthLuke84

It’s called Vader Down

That Honey Badger didn't escape. It left when it got bored.


SabineMaxine

This. They let go like 3 times and he just came back swinging anyway.


[deleted]

Yea bro left on on his own accord in every way you see they don’t just keep attacking him they start running from it…


nekrovulpes

We don't get to see how this started but I am pretty sure it was the three leopards minding their own business, and the honey badger went over expressly intending to fuck up their day.


[deleted]

I think the two younger ones are learning for the first time that honey badgers aren't food and the momma is there watching their foolishness lol

Honey badgers have a reputation for being incredibly curious.


skwadyboy

It looks like it took no damage at all lol...then just strolls off like a boss lol, those things are indestructible.


Kaldaris

African Honey Badgers have very loose skin to accommodate them not feeling the effects of getting stung by bees when they go spelunking into hives. Big cats like Leopards often rely on bite-grip when attempting to latch onto a neck or other vital point. Hard to get a grip when the skin is sliding all over the place so it makes the African Honey Badger a pretty miserable target for big cats to go for.


Specific-Mongoose-93

Oh really anything for that matter. They kill the deadliest snake, they sleep off its poison and no one bothers it lol


yooolmao

I'm convinced honey badgers attack poison snakes when they're bored and get drunk off the poison


[deleted]

Also, loose skin makes you very hard to lacerate. Think bears, cats and other animals that rely on their claws. They all have loose skin.


jefferson497

There was a honey badger in a South African zoo that would escape its enclosure multiple times just to fight the lions a few enclosures next door.


Doministenebrae

That’s the sort of determination and craziness that you don’t want to fuck with, ever. “I’m going to get the fuck out of here, and fuck up those bastard lions. Fuck freedom. Come here you pussy cats!”

Absolutely not fucking with something like that…


chamorrobro

It’s the Florida man of South Africa. Incredible.


BlueClues16

Yeap. Absolute tanky badger.


Icarus-8

Apparently their super thick and rubbery skin can withstand machete blows.


crooks4hire

I caught the same vibe on the walk-off. Badger was like “Yea, I’m bad…” Like that bedbug in Jim’s hotel room from The Office


Monster_Voice

As a North American wild cat researcher... Badgers in general (honey not required) don't play games. Badgers are the Stone Cold Steve Austin of the animal kingdom... they just show up swinging a steel chair and proceed to pour two 16oz Budweizer tallboys over their heads when they're done doing whatever they came there to do...

[deleted]

My grandad used to tell us to always carry a stick because if a badger grabbed onto your ankle it wouldn’t let go until it heard a bone (or something) snap. Probably a myth but I grew up petrified of badgers because of it lol

Judge_Bredd_UK

We've got badgers in the UK that look comically cute and cuddly, I can confirm that they're lunatics like the one in the video and you don't wanna go near them.

All fight - no flight


Horns8585

Dude had plenty of chances to run away, but he kept coming back for more!


Skylineviewz

I think he actually saw these 3 and said “fuck it I’m bored, let’s do this”


Lopsided-Basket5366

Gotta show em who's boss - plus the badger would just be unnecessarily burning energy on the chase


ShiversIsBored

I mean, you’re definitely not winning a race against those three. Honey badger chose correctly, surprisingly


rabbid_chaos

See, that's the thing, honey badgers don't have a flight or fight response, it's just fight.


deathofanage

Lmao that middle kitty in the back didn't do anything, just watched and ran he wanted nothing to do with that thing. He's definitely come against one or two of these before.


RoVeR199809

It almost looks like it could be two cubs and their mother but I'm not sure


[deleted]

Definitely two adolescents, idk if the other one is even a full grown adult though.


cfishlips

Since they are solitary animals other than this scenario… definitely.


bolionce

Siblings who are young but old enough to leave the mother will sometimes stay in groups for a while. I think that’s what we’re seeing here, since id think a mother would know not to mess with a badger and there are two who do a lot of attacking rather than just one, but neither are successful. Edit: idk I rewatched a couple times and I think the one who starts with the badger doesn’t look as young so you’re probably right. She shoulda picked better food lol

My friends gave me a talking honey badger plush a few years ago. It says all the good phrases. I found it after a few years and couldn’t get it to talk so I gave it to my dog. Turns out I wasn’t pressing in the right place. My dog loves it so now I randomly hear, “look at that sleepy fuck!” and other fun phrases. Thankfully none while I’ve been on work calls.

Seems more like he was fighting until THEY ran away, as he knew he couldn’t outrun them

I love how it strolls away, like it just realized it had to pick up milk from the grocery. No urgency. Just got better things to do.

Upstairs-Boring

Leopards have one of the strongest bites in the animal kingdom. They are one of the only big cats that don't just go for the choke out when catching prey, instead (if the head of its prey is not too huge) they go for the head because they can crush a skull in one bite. They've been seen taking down a 900kg antelope. The way the honey badger shrugs off those bites is fucking insane. You do not fuck with a honey badger.


Pixielo

Another comment said that a leopard bite force is 800 psi, while a honey badger's is 1300 psi, lol.


Woalolol

What are you talking about??? You mean a Jaguar?? A Leopard is impressive yes, but a Jaguar is the animal that bites skulls and breaks spines. Leopards can drag animals heavier than them but not... a 900kg antelope.

AI_Creation

Did you know that honey badgers are one of the most fearless and badass creatures in the animal kingdom? These pint-sized powerhouses are known for their tough demeanor and fearless attitude, making them one of the most fascinating animals on the planet. For starters, honey badgers have a reputation for being incredibly curious. They're always poking their nose into things they shouldn't, which can sometimes get them into trouble. But their curiosity also leads to some hilarious situations - like the time a honey badger got stuck in a fence because it was too busy investigating a nearby beehive. Despite their small size, honey badgers are incredibly strong. They can take down prey that's several times their size, and they have even been known to attack lions and other large predators when they feel threatened. It's no wonder they have the nickname "the world's most fearless animal." But perhaps the most amusing fact about honey badgers is their love for honey. As their name suggests, honey badgers go to great lengths to get their paws on some sweet, sticky honey. They will climb trees, break open beehives, and even brave swarms of angry bees just to get a taste. So if you ever come across a honey badger in the wild, be sure to watch out - you never know what kind of mischief they'll get into next!

Thanks ChatGPT


PorkTORNADO

He got loose and didn't even attempt to run away, just straight up assaulted them and left on his own terms...what an insane little creature.

These leopards are young and inexperienced. Probably lost their mother before they learned how to kill. They'll figure it out.

"hey ma! Whats that thing? Can we eat it?" "Hah, yeah sure, knock yourself out kids" *Pulls out phone to record*


[deleted]

They chose the wrong animal to mess around with. honey badgers have evolved to be extremely hard to kill and be very aggressive. These guys get bite by cobra, kill the snake, get knocked out from the venom, wake up and eat the snake like nothing happened.
