Honey Badgers. In some cases, a pair of lions might actually be easier
to deal with, because the lions are at least aware that they can be
damaged in such a conflict. Honey badgers have no reservations about
getting down, and or dirty to claim what they're after. They are just
about as unstoppable as it gets.
But what are they after? Well as fearless as they are, they aren't just
looking for a fight, they are looking to infiltrate the den of these
Ethiopian wolves and get at their pups. The only thing standing in their
way is this pack of determined canids that will do everything they can
to stop them.
wolves can dish out. Also known as ratels, these tenacious mammals
have very thick, stretchy skin that allows them to remain highly
mobile, permitting them the ability to turn around and bite an attacker
while it's biting them.
Think about that for a second: if the wolf is biting the badger, and the
badger can counter while an attack is happening, then the counter
attacking badger can bite at the face and eyes of what is attacking it.
This is a massive advantage, because everytime a wolf goes in for a
mouthful of badger could potentially be the last time he sees anything
out of one or both of his eyes.
This is what makes ratels so difficult to deal with, they make potential
attackers choose between letting them walk through their territory
unimpeded or, in selecting the hostile route, sustaining significant
prospective damage to their face, eyes and head as the battle rages on.
The only advantage the wolves have in this situation is their favorable
numbers.
But what are they after? Well as fearless as they are, they aren't just looking for a fight, they are looking to infiltrate the den of these
Ethiopian wolves and get at their pups. The only thing standing in their way is this pack of determined canids that will do everything they can to stop them.
