HONEY BADGER


Hello world, how is your Tuesday going?

Life here is good, it is a stinking hot day again.

Being Tuesday means it is creature day and today's creature is the Honey Badger, heard of it?????????

Me neither..................

The honey badger is smaller then a wolverine which it is related to, but is also tougher and even less scared. It is officially the world's most fearless animal, this ferocious fighter has powerful jaws and claws. It also has thick, rubbery skin that can withstand insect stings, snake fangs and the teeth of crocodiles and big cats.
It has very loose skin so if it is grabbed it can easily twist around and fight back forcing the enemy to let go.

They love to eat and will eat anything including, birds, hares, foxes as well as antelopes and jackals and even a tortoise yes a tortoise it just crunches through the shell. A deadly venomous cobra or black mamba not a problem.

Nothing scares them if a lion tries to steel it's food it will have a fight on it's paws .

  7. I have heard of the honey badger but had no idea it was so nasty. "Honey" in the name made me think it would be sweet.

    Love,

  11. Wow, I had heard of the Honey Badger, but never seen one or learned anything about them. I had always pictured them as calm sweet animals (maybe because of the "honey" in their name). I guess I was way off.
