New Poll: Badass Animals


Today as I was researching material for work, I came across the Honey Badger. After spending the better part of the day reading about the Honey Badger and watching YouTube videos of the Honey Badger, I am convinced that pound-for-pound, the Honey Badger is the most fearless and tenacious animal alive.

You should get more acquainted with the Honey Badger yourself. Learn how it ransacks beehives and doesn't give a crap that the bees are stinging it senseless. Learn how it gets bitten by a King Cobra, kills the King Cobra, becomes paralyzed from the King Cobra's bite, wakes up, and finishes feasting on the King Cobra. Learn how an old female Honey Badger with no teeth and one eye fought with a leopard for a full hour before the leopard finally gave up. Learn how there are rumors (unsubstantiated, of course) that the Honey Badger often castrates its prey. Also, learn how in July 2007, rumors started to surface in Basra, Iraq that British soldiers have been releasing "man-eating" Honey Badgers into the general population to murder innocent people. In my opinion, you must be doing something right as a badass animal if these kind of urban legends are getting tossed around about you.

On a particularly nice Friday, my hat is tipped to you, Mr. Honey Badger.

I put a poll up in the margin to coincide with my belief that the Honey Badger is, indeed, the most badass animal around. After you've learned about the Honey Badger, cast your vote.

I picked the lion as the most badass animal. Specifically, the male lion.

The female lion does all the work of hunting, yet it's the dude who eats first. Then he just sleeps the rest of the day, save for the occasional snog.

Total. Badass.
