- Something light today. A bit of animal facts about Honey badgers and their family as explained by Casual Geographic. I had no clue this animal existed before watching.

Casual geographic is legit one of the best channels on CZcams. So educational and funny it's incredible
Need to get off TikTok and get a proper mic.
@@BergenDev he already making a book and other stuff. Tiktok is a good way to reach the most amount of people especially with his content tho
I grew up in the country, we had Cougars, Bears, Skunks Porcupines River Otters etc, which we respected, and learned to avoid... the Badger on the other hand, we feared.. we knew by reputation they are very nasty and unpredictable. I was in the Prairies, hitching a ride along the highway, was around 2am, maybe 3... all lone in the middle of nowhere, I hear click click click, I turn to see what the sound was... it was a full grown Badger. I became a statue, and didn't look at it directly. Once it saw it was all clear, it continued crossing the highway... I didn't move until it was well into the bush on the other side of the road. Yes your out of the ordinary post, really brought back a scary memory... luckily I can laugh about it now.
I grew with your mom
African honey badgers,cougars and bears are not found in the same geography..i reckon.
For one....Africa doesn't have any bears or cougars.
You are correct, and I said Badger, not Honey Badger, and they have the same reputation in North America... they are vicious and unrelenting. The other animals I mentioned were referencing the animals in the geographical area I am from... when an entire population has respect for every animal I mentioned, but fears the Badger... that's speaks volumes. The only other animal feared here is the Wolverine, and for the same reasons. I hope that clears up your confusion.
as terrifying as that is, try hearing the grunting and coughing in the bushes nearby while taking a piss in the forest. You suddenly become extremely aware of just how squishy certain parts of your body is.
@@scar445 I had that happen when I was cutting back through the woods from a friends place... Heard grunting and breathing. I saw the eyes first, and I booked it through the trees towards home... I heard something following behind and it was big. I heard our Dogs barking as I flew down the hill into the back of the house. Open the glass door, and slammed in closed behind me. I turn to see what was chasing me, it was a Bull that had escaped from the farm next to us. We got him back into his pen, but it took my heart a while to get out of my throat.
I also had some wild adventures living off-grid in the bush... sometimes you get the feeling you are going to end up a snack.
Or Fishing in a 13' boat for Salmon, and a Killer Whale comes up beside you, and you get an eye to eye view. One flick of his tail and we would have been aquasnacks. Also had the displeasure of coming across a dead Grey Whale.. not a pleasant smell to be sure, but I sure felt small next to it.
i would love to see you react to more of him. he is educational, funny and he makes the info easy to digest.
I’ve done a couple in the past, is there one in particular you have in mind?
@@NoProtocol czcams.com/video/zZiMXaJ-pyA/video.html
the wolf who would be king.
hollywood could turn this into cartoon.
@@NoProtocol animals that got the middle finger from Nature
@@NoProtocol I believe Tier zoo has also done a video on Honey badgers
No; education is supposed to be confusing and inaccessible. I have to shut down his channel.
Leopards have been known to carry zebra kills up trees before going to retrieve their cubs to eat. Imagine being strong enough to carry what is basically a horse up a tree in you teeth and using your nails to climb! My cat once brought me a stoat kill as a gift, when my vetinary nurse missus told her boss about this, he was astounded and said that my cat was lucky to have survived the encounter.
They can comfortably and effortlessly carry twice their own weight up a tree. Pound for pound I beleive the are the strongest cat in proportion to their size. They also drag their food up trees, and will leave it their for a while, so as to prevent other carnivores/omnivores from stealing their food. Kind of like when a person goes camping and ties their food up in a bag when they are camping and slings it over a high hanging tree branch.
@bastiat icka boo boo 🤣
Otters look adorable on camera, but living in an area where giant otters are common and having seen them eating fish and defending their territory from other predators like ocelots and even jaguars, I just don't feel like getting too close to them and risk becoming the focus of their rage. Yes, they're absolutely cute and adorable when relaxed, but also absolutely vicious when they choose violence.
Love the Stoffal stories, I saw him in a video about escape artist animals. One of the animals that surprised me the most tho? Squids. Freakishly hard to contain for some reason, for much the same reasons as Stoffal.
Edit: Realized I meant octopuses (or octopod, or octopi. All apply).
Squids are also impressive! I hadn’t heard about Stoffal before but that may have been my favorite part of the video
@@NoProtocol there are a lot of videos about Stoffal, you’ll love them
Skunks were considered mustelids but are now in their own class. They do derive from a common ancestor though and are very similar without the aggression aspect. Their more developed scent glands are a good way to deture a conflict before it starts.
Thanks for this Tony!
Casual Geographic is a great presenter. He didn’t intend to do animal videos, but he did one and it blew up so he just keeps doing them!
I really like his deadpan humor
It’s always a delight to see a “No Protocol” video notification. You are definitely one of my favorite CZcams channels. Everything you put out is gold. Please keep up the good work. 👍
P.S. Bone marrow tacos are amazing , but my favorite is Tripas.
Thanks for taking the time to say this (: I’m glad you like the channel so far Paiute! Tripa is also good but I’ll take tuétano any day
If you ever get a chance to visit a zoo with a wolverine exhibit, it is an experience to see them up close. (Northwest Trek in Washington State often has them.) It is more than the fact they look like a cross between a honey badger and a grizzly bear but the sound and size of them is truly impressive. Their claws were one of the most shocking parts as they looked like some sort of mad scientist grafted bear claws far too big for them onto the already oversize mitts. The constant growls and grunts they made as they wandered around their enclosure made me think of Taz, WBs Tasmanian Devil. Not an animal you would want to end up on the wrong side of in the wild.
They're surprisingly good and caring parents; even the males are really good with the kits. Those claws are pretty much Omni-tools; excavations, tree and rock climbing, defense, attack, ice crampons...add in snowshoe paws, fur so densely insulative that _snow doesn't melt under a wolverine,_ and bone-crushing jaws and it's no wonder that wolverines have the capacity to back up their bluffs against bears, wolves and pumas~
Love your ability to change your mind so readily, when new information is presented. I don't think a lot of people can do that as well as you can.
(Probably doesn't hurt that you look cute while doing so.)
Nice choice , also refreshing to hear someone who is willing to admit that they did not know something in the video they are watching keep bringing the good content.
I love Casuals approach and rapid fire delivery. Dude is off the hook funny. First time on your channel and you get a subscribe just for hosting Casual on your channel. Good choice.
I can't recommend too many geography channels, but Atlaspro is pretty rad and makes really good biogeography videos. Biogeography is examining the animals and plants present in a particular area and figuring out why they're there.
Hwy there. Ive been enjoying your different reactions for a while. And am subscribed.
I nust came across this vudeo, which is what got me onto you.
I wanted to thank you, for being the oerson who put me onto the casual geographic. Much love from England! 😁👌
I have watched a few of your videos now and find myself missing much of the video as it's more interesting to watch you. You face shows you thinking with every piece of information that's new to you. (people that think are very OP)
Glad you discovered this great channel :D
Laugh and learn is a great concept . I hope he does a series on history. Great reaction !
I've been subbed to his channel for a long time...always informative in the most hilarious ways
I love the way you speak it is both articulate and concise.
Yes!!! Casual geographics! Amazing timing.
You can tell when you're captivated and/or learning something new. Sitting there watching your facial expressions. Looks like you were mesmerized for most of it.
Oh nice! I’m a subscriber to both you and Casual Geographic. Good stuff!
0:25: Technically, Honey Badgers and Skunks are somewhat related, being that (formerly, in the case of Skunks) both are members of the *_Mustelidae_* ("Weasel") family, which you could notice because of similar traits (the whole black with white stripes fur pattern, the horrible smell that both can deliver from anal pouches when they feel threatened or annoyed, and being mammalian carnivores with stocky, short bodies, and round ears).
However, a few years back, Taxonomists and Geneticists realized that Skunks were more closely related to a creature called the "Stink Badger," and decided to lump Skunks and Stink Badgers into their own distinct family, *_Mephitidae_* ("Foul Smell"), moving them out of the Mustelidae family. I hear there are talks about whether Honey Badgers should stay with the Mustelids, join the Mephitidae, or be given their own unique family to belong to too.
Fun fact about otters, the Giant River Otter found in South America can reach up to 6 feet long! Aggressively territorial with groups up to 10 members, and a bite force of 414 newton's, enough to liberate appendages fairly easily. Friendly reminder to everyone, just because an animal looks cute, doesn't mean it won't fuck your shit up :)
Absolutely! In fact most characteristics we find “cute” are things that enable said fucking up of your shit!
Things like big eyes on the front of the head for good vision with depth perception, rotating ear flaps on the top of the head for sensitive directional hearing. And if you’re really unlucky grasping hand like paws for dexterity.
Thanks for the video, I think I’ve watched this one 50 times. Honey Badgers don't want peace, they want problems. They don't want compromise they seek conflict. I’ve been following Casual Geographic’s Channel for years. I also like the one about Owls.
Love this guy and love your channel. It's not just you that learns from this. ✌️❤️🇬🇧
I love this dude’s funny and very witty descriptions of his subjects. He makes me crack up every time I watch one of his videos.
You're cool and have great takes. Thanks for the content!
Casual Geographic is one of the most entertaining and informative channels on CZcams I love it one of my favorites is Animals with Black Air Force Energy
Always a good day when you upload. This was totally the best way to end a birthday weekend
Happy late birthday Bruce!
@@NoProtocol that wasn't the present I knew I needed but I'm glad I got lol
@@NoProtocol needless to say thank you. I appreciate it!
Belated happy birthday
The fact you just jumped to the reaction like that ...
Aaaaannd subbed
If you haven't watched it yet try 'The Crazy Nastyass Honey Badger (original narration by Randall)'
and of course
The adventures of the cunning escape artist Stoffel. 'Stoffel, the honey badger that can escape from anywhere! - BBC'
Keep up the good work & cheers from the Netherlands
An absolutely fantastic reaction!!!! Thank you for this and I going to go down the rabbit hole of the Casual Geographic Reaction channel!!!! The dude knows his shit!!!!! Lots of education and his humor is priceless so I want more of that hole!!!! So says Austin Tx!!!!!!😎
Loved it!
Wholesome video. Very funny reactions. 😂
Honeybadger is like a smaller wolverine and you know wolverines go up against bears and wolves so it's no surprise this badger faces off with lions.
"honeybadger don't care" is a meme video that got this animal into the mainstream.
I love the animal videos, keep going with that
After this try out the documentaire about Stoffel. That little fellow will blow your mind. Watched it 10 years back, still can't stop thinking about it. What a creature.
The mustelid family is underrated. Aka Weasels. They have some of the most crackhead energy and courage in the animal kingdom. Compact, muscular, and unusually strong for their size. Honey badgers, wolverines, skunks, weasels, stouts, among others. Whether it be a honey badger scaring away a lion or a wolverine taking down a moose or fighting to the death against a black bear, they are NOT to be trifled with.
Two of my favourite CZcamsrs.
🤣 Loved this one! Definitely adding his channel now
He’s great!
Loved this one. Laughed so much that I had to keep stopping and going back to hear what he was saying.
Thanks, love from UK x
This guy does great videos
Perfect video for Sunday evening.❤
I was also into a nice lighthearted subject for a Sunday. Turns out Honey badgers aren’t that relaxing though
@@NoProtocol It would seem so, yes.=) Thx for responding, I love your videos!💖
Thanks for watching Cassie (:
1:25 My cousins are from the Netherlands and the Dutch word for seal is "Zeehond", which literally means "sea hound" 😉
Greetings from Birmingham New Street (stranded!). Lovely shade of green you’re sporting.
when I was in grad school, there was a skunk who had made a nest in the bush right next to the front step of my apartment building.
people kept telling me that I needed to be careful and that he might attack or spray me if I happened to scare him one day.
but whenever I left for work, at around 5am, he'd stick his head out and look at me as I came out the door.
I'd say "hello" and walk past. we always got along fine. there were no problems.
Omg your channel is so nice, everytime you upload it's like a gift, your green vest suit you very well its stylish, thank you for sharing, your personnality made me wish I was your friend
Hi again ,looking forward to it👍 wow tough creatures ,had no idea ,the Lion ran=)
Musseltids are one of my favortie animal family groups. They are so fascnating and often overlooked. Wolverines are endlessly intriguing as well as Honey Badgers. River Otters are actually quite terrifying and insanely territorial as well as fearless. I'm glad he mentiones Stoats because the fact that they hunt and kill rabbits twice their size is crazy. If you ever heard of the story Watership Down it features a stoat that makes the Rabbits life hell lol. Fishers are also apart of that family and they are famous for hunting down Procupines. They are prolific at killing them and use all kinds of strategies to take them down. Fishers were hunted for their fur back in the day and driven to extinction in their native range in many areas. That allowed Procupines to run rampant and they are infamous for eating trees and killing them. The Fisher had to be reintroduced to balance this out, as scientist believed the two coevolved as predator and prey. Anyways, highly fascinaiting animals lol
Awwww! This is definitely an official proposal! You're hilarious, and adorable!🤭
please do more!
Visited Stoffel and got to see and hear of his shenanigans first hand... what a legend :)
Very cool video and reaction. I remember seeing a video of a Wolverine attacking and running off a Grizzly bear, it was wild. Thanks for sharing the video and your thoughts.
Now I’ll have to look for that video! Thanks for watching (:
You should check out the Clouded Leopard. They practically live in trees, so much so their feet can rotate 180 degrees for superb tree climbing abilities. Another big cat, the African Cheetah, its cubs when first born up to about 3/4 months, actually look abit like a honey badge it's thought the reason for this is to deter predators making them think twice about attacking a potential honey badge, as we have seen here, it's not easy at all. Mother nature and her mimicking skills are truly amazing.
"So small and so much power, like the British Empire"
This girl's brain is on a wavelength of its own lol
the video on stoffel is great!
Love the vids 😀
Thanks for watching Tom (:
@@NoProtocol Thank you for the interesting content! I came across your channel recently and it really helps when I can't sleep, which is 98% of the time 😅
Love how your idea of 'Something light' is a video of the most ferocious oreo on land
I was in the South African army and they had a Infantry Fighting vehicle that punched above its weight - it came in various configurations with a 20mm cannon, or a 90mm cannon or with 81mm mortars in the back - this was named with the local word for Honey Badger - Ratel. True story - you may look it up.
Fire ants have a nasty strategy. They're very small so you don't feel them crawling on you. If you accidentally stand near their hill, they don't just bite randomly with their painful venom. They wait until a few dozen of them are on you and then one of them gives a signal so it's instant pain times twenty.
I've actually seen some of his stuff independantly (though someone else did point me at him), and he is both informative and entertainign which pushes all my whimsy buttons!
For a book, what about Ring of Bright Water (about an otter)?
Parodied as _Ring of Bright Haemoglobin.
That's awesome!
My literary recommendation for this one is the Wolverine Way by Douglas H. Chadwick, a local to Montana, here. It's about a study done on the animals in the wild.
nice video smiler😁
still loving your video's
Hey, thanks for saying (:
I am an otter. I went to Otter Valley Union High when I lived in Vermont. Even used to swim in Otter Creek! 😄
Love what you said about being ready to take on an otter to save your dog- I would face down ANYthing that threatened my dogs or cats. And during the decades I was in an animal rescue group, our foundress was attacked by a very angry BEAVER who was trying to save from drowning... and PS, English badgers are much more like English gentlemen, they look like Pepe LePew or Sylvester the Cat...
Definitely gotta support this dude he should have his on show an animal planet after dark. Have an awesome day no protocol we always enjoy watching videos with you. Cheers
he has the smoothest transition in the business.
I've been following Honey Badger CZcams videos for months now. And as scary as they are. They are my favorite fierce creatures. As your video informed us, they are also highly intelligent. They are so durable too. I saw a lion kill a HB and the lion had a devil of a time opening it up.
Digging this podcast and Casual Geographic....Shane Gillis does a bit about the guy fighting the kangaroo, it's spot-on and hilarious.
Definitely listen to his audiobook.
There is a football player, Tyrann Mathieu, with the nickname "Honey Badger." Didn't understand the reference at the time, but having seen this video, I get it now. I remember him from the Kansas City Chiefs; he plays for the New Orleans Saints now.
Thank you so much for that kangaroo video I added it to my videos to watch when I need a good laugh
The kangaroo video gets me every time
I did not expect to hear a Honey Badger - Great Britain comparison but here we are 😄
Casual geo is one of the most entertaining and educational channels on CZcams. Well worth the follow
The River Otter video he showed talking about them being a War Criminal is hilarious and informative.
I remember swimming in the vicinity of otters when I was younger, probably would reassess doing that now. That kangaroo video is hilarious.
He's got one video where a kangaroo just casually hops up behind a kid and punts him into a lake.
Casual Geographics is awesome!
On the lesser known feliform predators that he listed, the first one was the Fossa. They are especially famous as the antagonists of the first Madagascar movie.
Yeah, I'm pretty fearless when I'm carrying my Honey Badger too.
Yep, Tier Zoo did do a video on them. Or at least their family line encompassing them. They're top tier.
No one's ever called a Honey Badger "something light" before! The are absolute bad asses, and super smart! It's almost impossible to contain a honey Badger in a zoo or compound, they nearly always find or create away out! Super intelligent n tough as hell! 😮
A lot of what he says, or more precisely how he says it, is for comedic effect but anyone would be mistaken to think that that somehow invalidates or downplays what is being said.
Honey badgers don't wake up every morning and choose violence. They are violence.
PBS did a special on them “Honey Badgers: Masters of Mayhem”, very interesting animal and well worth a watch. Their level of don’t care is on a whole other level and good luck keeping honey away from them 🙂
The video of the escape artist is hilarious. Honey badgers are amazing. Notch in the chastity belt line is funny and will be stolen..
"The one with the sharpest fangs wins. That's what Killing Bites is."
I've been a student of biology and the natural world ever since I was a child, never stopped. Literally thousands of hours of reading and documentaries. My first love was and is caniforms. Even knowing what I know about dangers where I am such as bears, cougars, wolves, etc, I still jump in when we have a run in. I'm live up in the mountains in a tiny house and I've walked out my front door or turned the corner to my door and have met about every creature native to my area. Lots of bears and more cougars than I'm comfortable with. There's been several dust-ups. My 10 year old dog, Mac, even broke off a canine in a bears rump when he was in his prime. I have to carry a pistol or two because when I moved up here I figured "well, bear spray will work", it does not in fact work that well in my experience and they have to get too close. Then you're hurting your dogs and probably yourself too by spraying it... and probably just pissing it off to be honest. Warning shots usually work and when they don't you had better be quick and a good shot. If I catch a bear or cougar far enough off to allow me I will use my .22 pistol with super light and fast copper polymer rounds that are loud and just sting the animal. That often works so I don't have to use my 10mm which I like because I don't want to kill or severely injure an animal if it's not necessary but if it's messing with my dogs? I'm charging in like an idiot and filling that thing with lead. It's just reflex, I know all the rules, safety, but I just go into autopilot. Next thing I know I'm trying to pull them all apart and looking for the night night switch. It sounds awful but they're my dogs, I love em.
9:30 - Otter attacks my dog, I'm going to try to save him.
Fast forward 55 seconds - They'll do what to a what? Uhhh, ummm, sorry doggo, I might have to sacrifice you.
For your geography interest, I suggest reviewing CGP Grey - "How Many Countries Are There?"
If you want to listen to David Attenborough's voice, I suggest you review James Vietch - "PLnaT eRth | Episode 0.5"
I would love to see a video on the relationship between animals and people. We can get along / tame almost every animal, Im not saying you should do so, but they trust us. If you can understand animals it's actually very easy to read humans.
"what else is small..."
😞
Great reaction as always
Ngl I thought i was gonna hear "honey badger don't care. honey badger doesn't give a shit" XD XD
Ah yes, honey badgers. The wolverines of the tropics!
Also, this was a new channel for me, looks well-made.
Very straight to the point channel, no bs
hey NP, off topic but can you recommend a good fiction book?
TierZoo did make a video about Honey Badgers, called "Are Honey Badgers OP?"
May want to check it out when you have time
Stoffal is amaaaazing!
