Honey Badger Picks Fight With Elephant, Gets Hilariously Booted Away

September 9, 2025

Guests on a safari were left in awe when a honey badger, known for its fearless and relentless nature, decided to go toe-to-toe with a massive elephant.

Honey badgers are famous for being some of the toughest, most resilient animals in the animal kingdom. They take on predators, survive attacks, and aren’t afraid to confront creatures much larger than themselves. But even seasoned safari-goers were shocked to see this one set its sights on an elephant.

At first, it seemed like the little badger might get overpowered. Guests even thought the elephant had killed it — but, of course, the honey badger wasn’t done yet. Undeterred, it came back for more, refusing to back down.

Then came the perfect moment: the elephant, clearly tired of the persistent little challenger, spun around and delivered a flawless kick — captured perfectly on camera — sending the honey badger flying.
