The Honey Badger is a small, but fearlessly aggressive creature which is tipped to be the most courageous animal in the animal kingdom. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the Honey Badger is the fearless creature. Its courage is baffling irregardless of how small it looks.
As scary as it looks, that is how scary its confidence is. It is interesting to know that this creature devours porcupines, raids beehives for honey, kidnaps baby cheetahs, steals food from hungry lions, kills and even eats poisonous snakes (including the most feared snakes).
The Honey Badger can be survive being bitten multiple times by venomous snakes like the King Cobra. Although it is not known exactly how the Honey Badger’s body resists the effects of these types of deadly venom, it is thought that if the snakes could strike them enough, it’s likely the venom would eventually kill the Honey Badger.
The Honey badger feeds on just anything it wants. The Honey Badgers has sharp teeth and incredibly powerful jaws. It fights battles many consider a mismatch for it. Surprisingly, it tends to end up winning most of them.
