This predator is recognized for its formidable defensive powers and aggressive attitude, despite its diminutive size. They have keen claws and powerful jaws, as well as thick skin.

Honey badgers are around three feet long and weigh between thirteen and thirty pounds. Its body is small and strong, and its front feet have large claws. It digs holes with these claws and fights predators with them. This robust animal has keen teeth and may whirl around to attack a predator that has caught it.
