2012 World's Hardest Creature Competition, Semi Final Orca vs Honey Badger

[Simster]

He isn't though, is he? Honey Badger eats thing BIGGER than it. He ASSUMES it's a baby after saying Crocs CAN be as big as 6 metres.

Look at the last couple of pages. The ORCA is getting PUMMELED.

So does the ORCA. Minky whales for one. And how many things approaching its size does it eat that could potentially eat it back, such as the orca with the great white? None.


As I say, this is pure OWNAGE.

They were MISTAKEN for MILITARY TRAINED KILLING MACHINES, hunting HUMANS.

That ends the fuckin' tournament.

Yeah, as I've said I've seen one in the wild - before it RAN AWAY I could estimate it was about 80 cm long.

One metre is a TINY crocodile. Full-grown Nile crocodiles can be SIX metres long, implying this was only a baby. So, that's really hard of your champion to attack a defenceless BABY.

And it is hard of the DOLPHIN to attack it's prey in a large pack?

The Honey Badger fights Lions.

How scary would an 80cm long Orca be? About as scary as a really small Dolphin. Not scary at all.

It hunts Minky whales in packs! "The Wolves of the sea"- that's what they are. Where is the Wolf?

Also, it's not only about eating, eating your natural prey isn't HARD. It's about FIGHTING.

About the equivalent of a Honey Badger killing a lizard. Not hard.

You're right, it is looking very one-sided...

Errr...

Snakes (King Cobras)
Crocodiles

Due to them being born at DONTGIVEAFUCK'O'CLOCK, it is well known that Honey Badgers have few predators DESPITE their small stature.

Ah, so you're saying it's one Orca vs. one GWS, right? Not a GROUP of Orcas...

GWs do not normally get anywhere near the size of average adult KWs. I will say though that all the videos I've seen of KWs killing GWs are those of a 25ft+ KW attacking a 10-12ft GW. With that size difference the shark didnt have a chance in hell.

The honey badger is not hard at all,its just a parasite to most large animals like an ant is to us,also its sort of fearless because it has no brains.
I see the tiger got knocked out yet again because people don't understand pure power and what makes a certain creature special.

I for one, would not be unduly worried by an appraching Honey Badger... but a Tiger = death if it so chooses

A video comparing a Honey Badger and a Lion's reactions to African KILLER BEES.

How do you know a honey badger doesn't have thicker skin etc etc?so because the lion doesn't like bee's and a honey badger doews it makes it harder ha ha.

If you had a choice to go in a cage with a wild lion or a honey badger i can assure you all would pick the honey badger.

The tiger rules end of

orca's don't always hunt in packs........they reason they often do is because of their incredible communication skills

if you watch orca's hunt they usually toy with their prey for ages, mainly because they like to find new ways of killing stuff which they can pass down to future generations....they could kill it easily, but almost for fun they decide not to

they're also in a habitat with a shit load of really BAD ASS SHIT, and yet nothing would ever DREAM of attacking them and orca's will have a go at killing anything- and are pretty much always successful

it's NOT just a case of their size

I honestly cannot believe that after all this, you STILL do not understand the concept of this competition. It really isn't that hard!

 

[vegster]

Anyway, all this tosh wil be over soon for another year, maybe this thread should be restarted in a millenia or two ? by then there may be some new animal discoveries and a few extinctions in order to make it worthwhile doing ?

From your persistent pushing of the Orca, and admission that one of the contenders is taking a hammering, would I be right in suspecting that this conduct is to try and keep the competition alive? Because it sounds to me like the Orca is on the ropes.

2010 Orca=Second Round
2011 Orca=Winner

public opinion is ALWAYS changing

And the point ?

 

[Lord Bamber]

An Orca-sized Honey Badger would be the most terrible creature that has ever lived. A Honey Badger-sized Orca would be, well, a baby Dolphin.

In fact, the Orca isn't even a whale at all, it is OFFICIALLY a DOLPHIN. And everyone knows that dolphins are not hard.

Most utterly & definitely THIS!

Quite a few myths about regarding the Honey Badger, several of which have been repeated on here already so here are a few facts to help set the record straight
Are honey badgers invincible?

The Honey badger has been referred to as "the meanest animal in the world", and they are often considered to have no enemies, apart from man. However, in reality there are a number of records of them being killed by lion, leopard and on one occasion an African rock python. Some authors suggest that badgers are impervious to bee stings (and even bullets), but badgers have been stung to death by honeybees, particularly when they are caught in apiary traps (Kingdon 1989; personal communications). There is good evidence to suggest that, like other mustelids and viverrids (e.g. mongooses, hog-nosed skunks), badgers are less sensitive to venoms than many other mammals (personal observations).

Do honey badgers emasculate their prey?

Honey badgers are reputed to go for the scrotum when attacking large animals. The first published record of this behaviour was a circumstantial account by Stevenson- Hamilton (1947) where a badger reportedly castrated an adult Buffalo. Other animals alleged to have been emasculated by honey badgers include wildebeest, waterbuck, kudu, zebra and man. This has also been reported by other African tribes, but no direct evidence exists to support this behaviour.

Can honey badgers "fumigate" a beehive with their scent glands?

It is often suggested that badgers release scent from their anal glands to subdue bees or cause them to vacate the hive (Attenborough 1998; Kingdon 1989). The anal secretion is said to be "unendurable" and acts "like an anaesthetic, causing some bees to flee and others to become moribund" (Neal & Cheeseman 1996). Others suggest that honey badgers empty a hive by repeatedly holding their tail in front of the hive entrance. The disturbed bees attach themselves to the tail, whereupon the badger transports them away and returns to the unguarded honey (Kigatiira 1984). African hunters also say that badgers perform handstands while fumigating the hive (Kingdon 1987). Observations in the southern Kalahari and the Zambezi valley (Mana Pools) do not support any of these stories and on many occasions badgers were very cautious when raiding wild beehives.

The Honey Badger, NSC's most over-rated animal of all time

Anyone who doesn't vote for the GENITAL eating, KILLER bee ignoring, multiple LION beating (after they wake it up from an afternoon nap and piss it off), BUFFALO felling, knows-NO-fear, chemical RAGE sweating HONEY BADGER is a headcase.

THURSDAY PEOPLE - VOTE BADGER.

Ooooh. Not earthworms

Selective quoting, as I was clearly building up to the croc.

I love that someone gave an example of Honey Badger's NOT being hard by the fact they SOMETIMES LOSE against LIONS!

That's like saying the Orca's not hard because it SOMETIMES doesn't beat something about 15 times it's size!

Weak, weak arguments, and the fact that the host of the tournament has had to rush to the Orca's defence is very telling.
