Namibia, Honey Badger is the Most Ferocious Predator

Namibia, Honey Badger is the Most Ferocious Predator
The honey badger (Mellivora capensis) is listed as the "world's most fearless animal" in the Guinness Book of World Records.
There was cases when a honey badger forced a couple of lions to retreat !!
Unfortunately, I was not able to take a good photo of this amazing beast. He moved very quickly and was constantly against the sun.

Thanks Ronald. I saw another one in a couple of days, but so unexpectedly that I didn't even have time to prepare the camera.

Yes, they are very similar, both belong to the family of Mustelidae. Wolverine is also found in Northern Europe and Siberia. Cases of Wolverine victories over bears are known.
I've never seen Wolverine :(
