Chapter 1003 Crew Cut Brother (2/2)
across the ground.
The honey badger's dietary habits were varied. It would eat small-sized mammals,
birds, crawling bugs, ants, wild fruits, berries, nuts and so on, and could also feed on
venomous snakes. On occasion, it would also eat carrion.
Now it was attracted by the pieces of zebra flesh. The honey badger was obviously
hungry. Disregarding the lions, it ran out to grab a piece of meat and proceeded to
devour it.
Behind it was another small honey badger, most likely its offspring. It was no bigger
than a small puppy. It crawled out on its four limbs and grabbed a piece of meat as well.
It did not begin to eat at once, however, but ran back into the bush with its prize.
One of the female lions noticed the honey badger picking up the piece of meat.
Following the instinct of all wild animals to protect their food, the lioness ran up to the
honey badger and growled at it in an attempt to scare it off.
Seeing this scene, Good and the black soldier in the car laughed, saying, ”Ha, now
there's a show.”
Sure enough, the crew cut brother stopped eating as the lion growled at it. It raised its
body up and held its head high. It looked at the lioness and, without a moment's
hesitation, went up and scratched her.
The crew cut brother was the top spot holder of 'World's Most Fearless Creature' in the
Guinness World Records for many years consecutively.
It was different from other beasts. The crew cut brother was not just bold; it was all
courage from head to tail. From a scientific point of view, it had an invasive character,
which meant that honey badgers were always ready to invade another animal's territory
and pick up a fight.
It was unclear whether the lioness had ever seen a honey badger before, but she was
obviously stunned.
Lions were among the rulers of African wilderness, tyrannical and undisputed. They
were the terror of the grasslands, so who would dare to provoke them?
In virtually all cases, the lions were the ones to begin the fight, but this time it was the
honey badger that attacked first.
The honey badger's claw scratched the lioness, and she growled as she jumped
backward. She seemed surprised and unsure as she looked at the honey badger.
The lioness was hurt as the honey badger's claw was very strong. The honey badgers
were not only brave, but also very good fighters. Their claws were like hammers, and
could even break the hard shell of a land tortoise.
If there was only one lion, the crew cut brother had a high possibility of winning this
conflict.
A lion could fight off a honey badger, but would not usually fight with it. The crew cut
brothers were good at fighting, and did not have much flesh on them, so they were not
the lion's favorite food.
Predators hated them because fighting a honey badger meant fighting until one of the
sides fell dead. Many wild beasts could actually kill the honey badgers, but they had to
pay a high price of being wounded.
For wild beasts, their stamina and attacking powers were vital to obtain food. Getting
hurt due to fighting for pride would, therefore, make no sense.
Perhaps the lioness had met a honey badger before, so it was not interested in dealing
with one after suffering an attack. It turned around and was ready to join the group of
lions.
However, the crew cut brother would not let her go that easily. What the heck, we just
started the fight and you want to leave? How can this happen? When two rivals on the
grassland start a fight, they have to make it to the end and see who wins and gets to
live!
The lioness wanted to leave, but the crew cut brother would not let her. It crawled over
quickly, caught up with the lioness, raised its body, and slapped the lioness's rear with
its claw.
The lioness was furious. It growled as it turned around and opened its mouth wide to
bite the crew cut brother. At the same time, it raised both its thick, strong front limbs,
and aimed to smash its head.
