In South Africa, an eager scientist, a tenacious beekeeper and a patient conservationist all have a soft spot for these so called 'bad boys' of the animal kingdom, and each of them wants to discover if the honey badger's bite really is as big as its hype.

Maybe they should've just let Stoffel go. I mean, if he's that determined.....
Honey badger don't give a shit.
ReplyDeleteHow does he keep catching him?
ReplyDeleteHe keeps coming back (probably for the food), but why try to imprison him in the first place?
DeleteWe have Fischers here in NE-ish Pa. part of the same “family.” They’ve decimated the turkey flocks in my AO, and have been known to take fawns down as well.
ReplyDeleteThe game commission has a short hunting season on them. They’re also re-introducing them to the state.Nasty little critters they are.I’ve not seen one in the wild here in over 30 years. Now I’ve gotten 4-5 different ones on my game cams.
Like many things, SSS.

Lol the deal here in TN is you're not supposed to kill snakes. Talking to a wildlife officer he laughed, just don't post about it on social media please, or I gotta come talk to you.
DeleteWe have plenty of fisher cats up hear in the north west Adirondacks. They’re not known for hunting turkeys but will occasionally grab off of a roost at night.There main diet is squirrels and grab them from their nests at night. Coyotes and Fox put a hurting on Turkey populations. Bobcats as well.
DeleteDon't underestimate this porcupine killer, they will take down fox and lynx too...
DeleteStoffel is great. He got mauled by a lion, and they locked him up to recover. Revenge on his mind, he escaped that night, broke into the lion's pen, and bit the sleeping cat on the testicles.
ReplyDeleteIt's no damn wonder you have a Honey Badger for your header, hell, your just like him. How does the wife tolerate you? ;)
ReplyDeleteIt's a wolverine
DeleteI thought it was a bear sh*tt*ng in the woods!
DeleteOne slippery dude. Persistent to say the least.
ReplyDeleteAction Figure Therapy has a very funny series featuring a pet honey badger. Basically an active duty Army Ranger with PSTD trying to deal with stupid dick neighbors and idiot store clerks in general.
ReplyDeleteOf course, Randall narrating a video about the honey badger is a classic.
I have a badger problem with my cottage in western NC. A 22 short low velocity will probably be the answer.
ReplyDeleteHad a decent fisher population in NW Wisconsin. The porcupines were thinned out in short order. Stray cats in our city were also on the menu.

If we can have Free Willy, a love paean to a killer whale, why not a Free Stoffel ? They can even get Michael Jackson to hum it.
ReplyDeleteOh, wait...
