Before we get settled watching this amazing Honey Badger…just a reminder that today is Earth Day. To learn more about the history of Earth Day and what it means today click on the image below to visit National Geographic News.
When I first saw this I could not stop laughing at how time and time again this Honey Badger foiled all attempts to keep him in. He used tree branches, so they got rid of the trees. Then he piled up the rocks against the wall so they took away the rocks. He was not foiled at all, he made his own rocks from mud and piled those up.
I dare you not to giggle at this wonderful creature.
Just shows you doesn’t it…there is ALWAYS a way if you want it bad enough.
That is insane. Did they manage to find a way to keep him caged?

I couldn’t find out much more. I did look. I think that there was more in the programme, but I can’t access it here in NZ. Maybe you can give it a try.

I think an electric fence contained Stoeffel!

I almost feel sorry for the poor guy. It must shatter his confidence not being able to get out.

Happy Earth Day Jo! I love that video. I saw the full program back when it was broadcast on our PBS network and searched for hours for clips to post. That little guy (Stoffel?) was a total badass that wouldn’t back down from even the most dangerous animals. He even broke into a fenced off lion section just to pick a fight!

I heard that in the beginning of the clip. Hopefully one day I will see it all.

What a fantastic creature! I love him, Jo ๐ But I can’t work out how they keep catching him after each escape! Does he keep coming back, just for the challenge and the fun of it?

I am not sure Jo. You can try to watch the whole episode here on Honey Badgers: Masters of Mayhem.
I can’t watch it all because of the region I am in…boo hoo !! Gilly said they used an electric fence I think in the end. If you do watch it…let me know.
