    Their skin is so thick, lions struggle to draw blood. If they lose to a lion, the lion often just gives up after a They’re impact resistant, and their thick hides are way beyond human ability to bite through. Plus their aggression… They will not stop until they lose consciousness, then they’ll get back up and limp back for revenge

    Basically the only ways for an unarmed human to kill one is to smash the skull (they’re concussion resistant btw, you’d probably need several hard hits), strangle them, or go in through the back door until you can get up to something important

    I think it’s possible to win if you just rush on and commit, accepting you’ll probably lose an arm, but only possible… They have sharp claws and fast enough reactions to take on lions and cobras

      That is super interesting, I know so little about the honey badger, still I feared most a lion because his mass, because vs that I am sure to die. A little enemy like the honey badger give me more hope, going through the asshole is actually a good idea, strangle and compress his skull for sure.
