6 Most Ruthless Fights of a Honey Badger

Added: 2026-06-01

[00:00:00]Honey Badger versus Leopard.

[00:00:03]Who would win a fight?

[00:00:05]In the wild, the laws of nature are clear. Strength reigns supreme. Stealth grants survival. And size often determines the outcome of a fight. But every now and then, something breaks those laws. Something small, scrappy, and seemingly fearless challenges the very definition of what it means to be a predator. On one side, the leopard, a silent assassin cloaked in golden shadows, muscular, calculating, elegant in its violence, a creature sculpted by evolution to kill with precision.

[00:00:42]And on the other, the honey badger, tenacious, defiant, and wrapped in a body 1/5 the size of its rivals, yet it doesn't back down. It doesn't run. When cornered, it fights like it's possessed.

[00:00:58]What happens when these two apex predators cross paths? Could raw power overcome indestructible will? Could the smallest beast in the fight deliver the biggest surprise?

[00:01:10]This isn't just a fantasy match-up. It's a window into two very different philosophies of survival.

[00:01:17]Today, we delve into the ultimate face-off, honey badger versus leopard.

[00:01:23]Let's discover who they are and who would walk away.

[00:01:28]What do they look like?

[00:01:30]At first glance, the size mismatch is almost laughable. The leopard is the epitome of feline grace and lethal agility. Males can reach up to 200 lb, 90 kg, stretch over 6 ft, 1.82 [music] m in body length, and possess retractable claws, razor-sharp teeth, and explosive muscle mass. Their fur is a masterpiece, golden yellow with black rosettes that vanish into the dappled light of forest and savanna.

[00:01:58]Their eyes piercing, alert, and calculating, everything about a leopard screams apex predator.

[00:02:06]Now turn to the honey badger. At barely 30 lb, 13 kg, it looks like a low-slung blur of muscle and mischief. Its body is compact, designed more for burrowing and resistance than grace.

[00:02:19]The thick, tough skin is a natural armor, nearly impervious to bites, stings, and slashes.

[00:02:26]Its claws are long and powerful, designed to dig into earth and, if needed, flesh. Its color palette is stark, black below, silver-white above, a warning sign worn like a crown. And behind that dark face lies a creature with the ferocity of a much larger animal packed into a frame half its size. It's David versus Goliath, but in nature, the outcome isn't always written by size.

[00:02:53]Where do they live?

[00:02:55]Despite their differences, both the leopard and the honey badger call overlapping territories home. Across sub-Saharan Africa, from arid deserts to dense jungles and rolling grasslands, these two animals share the same rugged landscapes.

[00:03:09]The leopard, ever the adaptable predator, inhabits everything from savannas to forests, even highlands and mountainous terrain. Its secret weapon is its versatility, the ability to vanish into the surroundings, scaling trees or slipping through brush without a sound. Honey badgers, meanwhile, thrive on the edges of ecosystems. They burrow in dry deserts, forage in forests, and patrol the fringes of human farms. They are wanderers, always on the move, never far from trouble. And where leopards might avoid unnecessary confrontation, honey badgers often march right into it.

[00:03:44]What binds them to the same ground is the hunt. Both are opportunists, driven by hunger and survival, which means that occasionally their paths do cross. And when they do, [music] the results can be explosive.

[00:03:59]What do they eat?

[00:04:01]Leopards are the ultimate solitary hunters, relying on stealth, patience, and raw power to secure their meals.

[00:04:08]They are obligate carnivores, meaning their diet consists almost entirely of meat. These apex predators prefer medium-sized ungulates, impalas, gazelles, young antelope. But they are versatile and opportunistic. If it moves and they can catch it, it's food.

[00:04:25]Monkeys, porcupines, warthogs, birds, even fish. Leopards are ambush predators. They don't chase, they wait, crouched in tall grass or high up in a tree, silent and invisible.

[00:04:38]When the moment is right, they pounce with lightning speed, aiming to bite the neck or throat to suffocate their prey.

[00:04:45]Once the kill is done, the leopard's next act of brilliance comes into play, dragging the carcass up into a tree to protect it from scavengers like hyenas or lions. This alone showcases their immense strength and tactical thinking.

[00:05:00]In contrast, a honey badger lives by a different rulebook. A walking appetite on four legs, it is an omnivore, equal parts scavenger, predator, and forager.

[00:05:10]Its diet is a chaotic buffet, small mammals, birds, eggs, insects, fruit, carrion, and famously venomous snakes.

[00:05:19]Yes, snakes. The honey badger's most astonishing culinary feat is its resistance to snake venom. It has been observed taking on cobras, puff adders, even black mambas. Bitten, it may pass out briefly, only to get back up minutes later and finish its meal. Its hunting tactics are direct and fearless. It will dig out rodents, chase birds into bushes, and rip apart beehives for larvae and honey. [music] With massive foreclaws and near unbreakable skin, it has the tools to ignore injury and go straight for the reward. Where a leopard is precise, the honey badger is chaotic.

[00:05:56]One stalks, the other storms in. But both are apex survivors, perfectly adapted to the wild chaos of Africa.

[00:06:05]How do they behave in the wild?

[00:06:08]Leopards are masters of silence and solitude. Unlike lions or hyenas, they don't rely on groups. Each leopard is an island, a lone killer roaming its territory in search of prey. They are observant, calculating, and capable of extraordinary feats of strength and agility. Stealth is their first weapon.

[00:06:27]They will watch a herd for hours waiting for a single mistake. Honey badgers, they don't wait. They confront. [music] Known as one of the most fearless creatures in the animal kingdom, they've been recorded attacking animals many times their size, including lions, hyenas, and even leopards. When threatened, the honey badger turns into a buzzsaw. It growls, twists, and lunges for the face or the groin, the most vulnerable spots. It fights with reckless intelligence, aiming to disable fast. They don't bluff, they don't back down, and the leopard, for all its strength, often walks away. Not because it can't win, but because it knows the cost might be too high.

[00:07:09]Who would win in a fight?

[00:07:11]Let's strip it down. One-on-one, no escape, no backup, no distractions. The leopard [music] stands tall, muscles rippling under golden fur. It knows how to kill, quickly, cleanly, but it also knows that some fights aren't worth the risk. A wounded leopard can't hunt. A scar in the wrong place could spell starvation. Caution is part of its intelligence. But the honey badger doesn't think that way. It sees the world as a challenge to be met with teeth and fury. In its mind, pain is temporary and and retreat is shame. So, it charges fast, low, claws up, and it goes for the soft spots. The leopard slashes trying to land a clean bite, but the badger's skin is so thick and loose, it twists inside it. It bites back. It grabs a paw. Blood spills. The badger targets the groin, [music] the underbelly, the face, places where the leopard's power counts less.

[00:08:09]Its tactics are violent, chaotic, but effective. The leopard, confused and bleeding, might land a paw strike or a bite, but even then it's hard to lock onto this twisting armored blur. In most scenarios, the leopard has the tools to win. One bite, one precise kill, and it's over. But honey badgers are chaos incarnate. They fight like they don't care about winning, and sometimes that's exactly why they don't lose. In the end, the leopard has the odds, [music] the size, the strength, but the honey badger has the legend, the mythos of madness.

[00:08:44]If it survives [music] the first blow, it just might win the war. So, who wins?

[00:08:49]Nine times out of 10, the leopard walks away, maybe with a limp, maybe with a scar. But that 10th time, that 10th time when a honey badger lands just the right bite, when the leopard hesitates just a second too long, that's when legends are born. And in the wild, legends are everything.

[00:09:10]Black mamba versus honey badger.

[00:09:13]Who would win?

[00:09:15]It's a showdown you never knew you wanted, but once it was here, you loved it. One of the scariest venomous snakes [music] in the world, the black mamba, who is he going to face off against?

[00:09:25]Someone who doesn't care about a thing in the world. Someone who is essentially a garbage disposal, the honey badger.

[00:09:31]Both of these animals inhabit Africa, so we will be seeing the showdown real soon. Make your picks. These animals are some of the most deadly in the world, taking down animals far larger than themselves.

[00:09:44]So, what happens when they go up against each other?

[00:09:48]Black Mamba.

[00:09:50]When you think of deadly animals, you might think of lions, jaguars, crocodiles, grizzly bears.

[00:09:56]But, forget about the big boys for a minute. We are going to focus on some smaller animals. And though the black mamba isn't as big as a lion or a crocodile, he regularly takes down opponents that larger than him. He's a menace even in a smaller package. But, let's not confuse things. We're talking about how he's smaller than a lion or a crocodile, but he isn't small per se.

[00:10:17]In fact, among venomous snakes, he is the second longest in the world. On average, they're about 8 to 9 ft long, but they can reach lengths of 14 ft.

[00:10:27]When we talk about them being small, we clearly don't mean their length, but that's geared more towards overall mass and weight as the black mamba is just about 4 lb. But, this is also a record-breaking snake in a couple of ways. One, the black mamba is the fastest-moving land snake in the world, able to hit speeds of up to 12 and 13 mph.

[00:10:47]So, Olympic sprinters can outrun him, professional basketball players, too.

[00:10:51]But, you sitting there on the couch, we are not entirely certain that you can.

[00:10:56]And it isn't just him that's fast. His venom is fast-acting as well. One of the fastest-acting venoms in the world, symptoms show up almost immediately. If a human is bitten by a black mamba, not only can it be fatal, it's almost a guarantee that untreated, it will be fatal in a matter of hours. Some people have collapsed within 45 minutes of a bite. Clearly, a human is larger than a black mamba. Even more clearly, an elephant is much larger than a black mamba, and a bite could still kill an elephant in several hours.

[00:11:28]The reason the bite from the black mamba is so deadly is twofold. For one, 10 to 15 mg of venom can kill an adult human.

[00:11:36]The average dose from a black mamba bite is 120 mg, already 10 times what you need. By the way, we stress average because it can actually be as much as 400 mg.

[00:11:48]That is why you don't wait after a bite.

[00:11:50]That is why animals as large as elephants can be taken down. And you're smart, you know math, you get how averages work. If the average is 120 and it can be as high as 400, that means by law of averages, it can be far less than 120.

[00:12:06]You also have probably heard [music] of dry bites, which refers to how venomous snakes bites don't always carry venom.

[00:12:12]Every once in a while you get a dry bite with no venom. The black mamba has a nearly 100% rate of envenomation, higher than any other snake, and meaning it essentially never has a dry bite. Black mambas are found throughout many places in sub-Saharan Africa, especially Eastern Africa and Southern Africa.

[00:12:31]Black mambas prefer moderately dry environments like woodlands and semi-arid savannas, but you can also find them in lowland forests and other more humid places. They tend to look for warm-blooded animals to feast on like birds and also small mammals like rodents, bats, and hyraxes.

[00:12:48]Occasionally, they'll eat other snakes.

[00:12:50]Okay, small mammals are targets. Other snakes may be at risk. Humans need to watch out, so do elephants, and basically any other animal that's smaller than an elephant, which is everyone. Sounds like the black mamba can essentially take down anyone. He's a giant killer. But what does that mean for our honey badger? He's no giant.

[00:13:09]He's small. He's a mammal. Is he shaking in his little honey badger boots?

[00:13:14]Honey badger.

[00:13:17]The honey badger probably isn't shaking.

[00:13:19]He's probably not nervous at all. The video that went viral years ago told us all that honey badgers just don't care.

[00:13:26]He never cared before, and he still doesn't care. Watching any footage of the honey badger and you can see that that is true. He is fearless for his size, that is quite a feat, [music] but it isn't a confidence he shouldn't have. He absolutely should because he is ruthless and he takes down animals much bigger than his size all the time. Now, honey badgers can be found in parts of Asia, the Middle East and all over sub-Saharan Africa. So, they have contact with a lot of different animals and do you want to know why the honey badger is thought of as a living garbage disposal? Because he eats anything and everything. After observing honey badgers in the Kalahari Desert alone, there were over 60 different species of animals that had been eaten by honey badgers. 60. And by the way, when they eat an animal, they eat all of it. Skin, flesh, hair, feathers and bones.

[00:14:15]Everything. It's been observed on many occasions honey badgers digging up deceased humans and feasting on their remains. But, to focus on animals that make up a large part of their diet, honey badgers will eat geckos and skinks. They'll eat gerbils, mice, spring hare, snakes and it's even been seen that when they come across domestic sheep and goats, they attack and eat those, too. So, that you understand the significance of that, you need to know the honey badger's size. He's short with sturdy legs and really thick skin. About 11 in tall at the shoulder, about 2 and 1/2 ft long and up to 35 lb.

[00:14:52]Goats can weigh anywhere from 50 to 100 lb and even more and the honey badger is still taking them down. What's scarier, honey badgers will attack animals sometimes just for the sake of attacking. He may or may not be trying to get a meal, he just chooses violence.

[00:15:09]Honey badgers have often attacked humans 150 lb and up. They've attacked wildebeest up to 600 lb, zebras up to 1,000 lb and water buffalo up to 1,200 lb. This is absurd. How does he even do damage to these large animals? Well, honey badger engages in the art of emasculating your prey. That's right, he goes straight for the testicles. And after he's done horrific damage to that region, the animal is in a state of extreme pain and shock, and so the honey badger can then proceed with the rest of his attack. The honey badger not only has strong arms and claws, but his bite is ferocious for many reasons. One, it's one of the strongest bites in the animal kingdom and the jaws are so powerful and unique it's almost impossible for them to be dislocated. It is said that once the honey badger bites down on something, there is no prying those jaws open. The only way those jaws open is when the honey badger decides it's time.

[00:16:05]As you figured out by now, the honey badger is savage. He is ruthless, but he also possesses a toughness that will not allow him to quit. Sometimes when he attacks an animal, it does not go his way and he may take a bit of a beating, but he oftentimes will not stop going for the kill again and again as many times as needed. The thick skin he has means that many animal bites will not penetrate or cause much damage, nor will porcupine quills, and nor will bee stings, which is why honey badgers love to raid beehives for honey. [music] There are times when honey badgers will find hyenas or lions that are feasting on a recent kill, and if the hyenas or lions are young or just not fully grown, the honey badger will often chase them away. His reputation has grown so much over Africa that even the lions know to run away when this lunatic is approaching. So, we know the honey badger has confidence, but will that be enough for the fight against the deadly black mamba?

[00:17:01]The face-off.

[00:17:03]The black mamba and the honey badger share many of the same environments in Africa, so these battles occur all the time. You may not have seen one happen because it consists of two animals you definitely want to to far away from. So, when the black mamba and honey badger see each other, their aggression takes over and both of them want to attack the other. Yes, the black mamba is the fastest land snake moving at 13 mph, but the honey badger is quicker, able to run at 20 mph. Then again, the way a snake strikes with its head is as quick as a lightning bolt, and the black mamba has got some reach, so he could still land a bite on the honey badger. The black mamba is filled with enough venom to take down an elephant. The honey badger is far more than that. The honey badger will need to do his best to use his speed and agility and come at the snake from another angle, getting behind the black mamba's head and using his strong arms and claws to pin it down, attacking with those powerful jaws. But, that's easier said than done. The black mamba can spin around, evade attacks, and whip his body around so quickly. Each time the honey badger tries to sneak around and attack the black mamba from behind, the black mamba will whip around and face off against the honey badger once again.

[00:18:14]The honey badger likes to emasculate his prey when attacking, but that works on humans, on wildebeest, on zebras, on water buffalo. It's not going to work on a snake. We think you can guess why. So, the honey badger's usual method won't work, and he can't get behind his black mamba to pin down the head. But, what do we know best about the honey badger?

[00:18:34]He just don't care. He's decided he's just going to take on the black mamba head-on. So, he charges, lunging at the black mamba. But, the black mamba sees this and reacts even quicker, lunging forward himself and biting right into the honey badger. As is the case most times when this happens, the black mamba has no dry bites, and the honey badger immediately faints, falling to the ground. And as is the case every time after the honey badger faints, after a few moments he awakens and gets right back up. The black mamba is shocked, and the honey badger charges again. He lunges and lands a heavy bite right on the black mamba, sinking his teeth in and tearing the snake apart. And then, not just declaring himself the victor of the battle, but then eating his opponent. There are a few other things we need to tell you about the honey badger. That thick skin that can withstand animal bites and porcupine quills and bee stings, it can also withstand [music] bites from venomous snakes. The skin is so thick, the venom won't kill the honey badger. Oftentimes, it won't even affect him, but at worst, he will faint from it and then wake back up.

[00:19:41]The other thing you need to know about the honey badger, and it goes hand in hand with him being resistant to even the most lethal of snake venoms, is that a large part of his diet is not just snakes, but venomous snakes.

[00:19:53]>> [music] >> And that includes the black mamba. There really isn't much that the black mamba can do against a honey badger. He gave him his best shot. He gave him his most deadly shot that he has, one that kills most other animals, no matter their size. But none of these animals has a thick elastic skin that is specially designed to withstand venom. So, once the black mamba has taken his best and only shot, he's in trouble. The honey badger is not just going to attack, he's going to set the table and put out the good silverware. Because what's on the menu for dinner tonight is black mamba casserole.

[00:20:28]Wolverine versus honey badger.

[00:20:30]Who would win?

[00:20:33]Badgers and wolverines don't resemble each other, even though they both belong to the Mustelidae family, that also includes skunks, minks, and weasels.

[00:20:43]Like other mustelids, they have five toes on each foot and use a musky odor to mark territory, attract mates, and to defend themselves.

[00:20:53]But these distant cousins live in vastly different habitats.

[00:20:58]Wolverines struggle to survive in only the wildest places.

[00:21:03]They are equally renowned for their ferocity, their ability to take punishment, and their unbelievable gluttony.

[00:21:10]Size.

[00:21:13]The wolverine is much larger, up to 107 cm in length, up to 45 cm at the shoulder, and weighs up to 25 kg.

[00:21:25]Wolverines have a compact and powerful build that resembles a small bear.

[00:21:31]The color of their long fur ranges from blond at birth [music] to dark brown or black with blond tips, a gray or black tail, and a light face as they age.

[00:21:42]Their heads are round with dark eyes and round ears.

[00:21:46]The honey badger measures up to 96 cm in length, up to 28 cm at the shoulder, and weighs up to 16 kg.

[00:21:57]Diet.

[00:21:59]Wolverines are omnivores.

[00:22:02]They eat both meat and vegetation.

[00:22:05]Typical meals for a wolverine include large game like caribou, moose, and mountain goats.

[00:22:12]Smaller animals like ground squirrels and rodents, and even birds' eggs and berries.

[00:22:18]They like meat best though, and will go to great lengths [music] to get it.

[00:22:23]Wolverines have a keen sense of smell.

[00:22:25]They can smell prey 20 ft under the snow.

[00:22:29]Wolverines also seem to be aware of how to store food. Research shows that wolverines use snow as refrigerators to keep their food fresh.

[00:22:39]During times when food is scarce, the wolverines will go back to their stockpile to retrieve a meal.

[00:22:47]Honey badgers are generally carnivores with an extremely wide diet.

[00:22:53]More than 60 species of prey were recorded from the southern Kalahari alone.

[00:22:58]Badgers eat a host of smaller food items like insect larvae, beetles, scorpions, lizards, rodents, and birds.

[00:23:08]They will catch the larger reptiles, like leguans, crocodiles, and pythons, and include the highly venomous adders, cobras, [music] and black mamba in their diet.

[00:23:19]Larger animals, like the spring hare, polecat, and particularly juvenile foxes, jackals, antelope, and wildcats are also caught.

[00:23:30]Range and habitat.

[00:23:33]Wolverines prefer colder areas, because they use the snow for dens, besides food storage.

[00:23:40]They live in the Arctic and subarctic, in grasslands, alpine forests, taiga, boreal forests, and tundra of Europe, Asia, and in North America in the northern latitudes.

[00:23:54]Wolverines are solitary creatures, and need great swaths of territory to roam.

[00:23:59]Males mark their territory with their scent, and only share their turf with females.

[00:24:05]Their territories can range from 40 mi, >> [music] >> 65 km, to more than 372 mi, 600 km.

[00:24:17]Badgers prefer dry, open grasslands, though they are very adaptable.

[00:24:22]Honey badgers are found in southern Africa.

[00:24:26]Territorial differences.

[00:24:29]The most staggering difference between these two species may be the size of territories they occupy.

[00:24:36]Male wolverines have a home range of about 920 sq mi, while the territories for female wolverines >> [music] >> is about 390 sq mi.

[00:24:49]Male and female wolverines will fight other wolverines to the death to defend their home ranges. The territories of male badgers are 1 and 1/2 square miles, while females [music] live in a territory of approximately 1 square mile.

[00:25:05]Badgers don't defend their territories and their home ranges may overlap with other badgers.

[00:25:11]Behavior.

[00:25:14]In terms of behavior, the wolverine is fearless.

[00:25:18]It has been recorded killing a polar bear by latching onto the throat with its jaws and suffocating the animal.

[00:25:25]Its primary means of killing is suffocation by biting the throat and not letting go, and also by crushing with its powerful jaws and specially adapted molars.

[00:25:37]Honey badgers need to be exceptionally tough to survive.

[00:25:41]Lions, leopards, and hyenas are all well known to attack and attempt to kill honey badgers.

[00:25:48]These attempts are sometimes successful, but very often they are not.

[00:25:53]The honey badger will fight non-stop until it is dead or the attacker tires, at which point the honey badger will make a break for it.

[00:26:03]Weapons.

[00:26:05]The wolverine's teeth are unique. They have a special molar that is reversed 90°, which is used for breaking through bone.

[00:26:14]Their jaws are powerful, and the combination of strong jaw muscles and special molars allow them to eat every part of the animal, including hooves, bones, and teeth.

[00:26:26]According to specialists, wolverine claws are believed to be semi-retractable, but are actually fixed.

[00:26:33]However, the toe biomechanics effectively allows them to perform a similar action, which of course allows them to be kept sharp.

[00:26:42]These claws are also curved and therefore ideal for hooking and shredding.

[00:26:49]The honey badger's weaponry includes a set of much smaller, but sharper teeth than that of the wolverine, sharp claws, and equal ferocity and stubbornness to that of the wolverine.

[00:27:01]The honey badger has a reversible anal gland.

[00:27:05]The smell produced by it is described as suffocating.

[00:27:10]Defense.

[00:27:12]The wolverine's main defense against predators is its ferocity. It uses this together with its sharp claws, sharp teeth, powerful jaws, and thick skin and fur to protect its kills against much bigger predators, including wolves and bears.

[00:27:31]Although the wolverine is known to have a thick hide, wolverines have been recorded killed by North American porcupine quills in a number of instances.

[00:27:41]On the other hand, the badger is built to take a beating.

[00:27:45]The honey badger has an exceptionally tough, thick, and loose hide, specifically evolved to defend it against biting, clawing, and stinging.

[00:27:55]It is almost 6 mm thick and extremely tough.

[00:28:00]A good example of how tough is the fact that African porcupine quills [music] rarely penetrate it.

[00:28:07]Bear in mind that African porcupines are three times the size of their North American cousins.

[00:28:14]Their second defense is tirelessness.

[00:28:18]They can literally keep fighting for hours on end. This is a problem for a predator already battling to gnaw through the [music] skin.

[00:28:27]The effort is tiring, and the whole time the honey badger is struggling and counter-attacking with its own claws and teeth.

[00:28:35]The third defense of the honey badger is that when attacked, it will go for its attacker's groin. There are records from the Kruger National Park in South Africa of adult male Cape buffaloes having bled to death after being savaged by honey badgers in this manner.

[00:28:53]Who will win the fight?

[00:28:55]It is interesting to know who will win the fight between a wolverine and a honey badger.

[00:29:01]Both animals are mustelids and hunt in the same way.

[00:29:06]One thing which goes in favor of the wolverine is its strong size.

[00:29:11]We know that a honey badger can handle the larger prays like lions, leopards, and tigers.

[00:29:17]But after seeing some specifications of immune system and hunt capability, most people go with the wolverine, but it is not over yet.

[00:29:27]It boils down to whether the wolverine could get through the honey badger's defenses to kill him and whether the honey badger even has the tools to kill a wolverine.

[00:29:37]In my opinion, a honey badger would win the fight as an American porcupine once killed a wolverine, and I have seen a video in which an African porcupine cannot penetrate its quills in a honey badger's body. And an African porcupine is three times the size of a North American porcupine. And the second point is tirelessness.

[00:30:00]A honey badger fights for hours.

[00:30:02]So, it is difficult to get control over it.

[00:30:06]It attacks the groin of larger prays, and its gland produces a suffocating smell as well.

[00:30:15]>> Baboon versus honey badger. Who would actually win if these two fearless animals faced off? It's a clash between a brawny baboon and the infamous honey badger. You might be picturing sharp fangs versus sharp claws, monkey versus mustelid. Which creature is tougher?

[00:30:34]Which one would you put your money on?

[00:30:36]Stay tuned. We're about to compare their size, strength, and survival skills, And then imagine an epic showdown.

[00:30:47]Size and strength comparison.

[00:30:50]Size matters in a fight. The chacma baboon is one of the largest monkeys in the world. A full-grown male chacma baboon can weigh 30 to 40 kg. These baboons stand around 2 to 3 ft, 60 to 90 cm tall on all fours, and even taller if they rear up. They have long, strong limbs and a muscular build. In simple terms, a big male baboon is much larger and heavier than a honey badger. By contrast, a honey badger is far smaller in body size.

[00:31:25]An adult honey badger typically weighs only about 8 to 16 kg, roughly the size of a medium dog. They are about 60 to 70 cm in body length and stand just 25 to 30 cm tall at the shoulder.

[00:31:42]So, physically, a baboon has the advantage of bulk. It might weigh two to three times as much as the badger.

[00:31:50]However, don't let the honey badger's smaller size fool you.

[00:31:55]It's powerfully built for its size with a stocky, muscular body and surprisingly strong limbs. Think of the badger as the little tank of the animal world.

[00:32:06]Compact, but tough. In terms of strength, baboons are impressively strong primates.

[00:32:13]A male baboon has powerful shoulders and arms.

[00:32:17]They often need this strength to fend off predators [music] or rival baboons. Honey badgers, though smaller, are legendary for punching above their weight. They have been seen dragging prey much heavier than themselves and tearing open tough beehives and burrows. Pound for pound, a honey badger's muscles and bite are extremely strong. So, while the baboon is stronger overall, due to sheer size, the honey badger is incredibly strong relative [music] to its own size.

[00:32:48]Habitat and lifestyle.

[00:32:51]Baboons and honey badgers do share overlapping habitats [music] in Africa, so a meeting is possible. The chacma baboon roams across southern Africa, thriving in savannas, woodlands, mountains, and even semi-desert areas.

[00:33:06]Baboons are highly social.

[00:33:09]They live in troops that can have dozens of members.

[00:33:12]You'll often see baboons foraging in groups during the day, eating anything from fruits and seeds to insects or small animals. They sleep at night in trees or on cliff faces, safe together in numbers. This social lifestyle means baboons are used to backing each other up.

[00:33:32]An individual baboon is tough, but a whole troop is even tougher. However, for our one-on-one matchup, we'll imagine a single male baboon stepping up to fight. Honey badgers, on the other hand, are mostly solitary creatures.

[00:33:46]They wander alone across a huge range of habitats.

[00:33:51]Forests, grasslands, savannas, and deserts from Africa to parts of Asia. In Africa, they often share the same savanna and woodland areas as baboons.

[00:34:03]Honey badgers spend a lot of time digging and hunting by themselves.

[00:34:08]They are nocturnal hunters for the most part, though they can come out in daytime, too. They'll eat almost anything, rodents, birds, reptiles, insects, and yes, honey, raiding beehives despite hundreds of stings.

[00:34:25]A honey badger doesn't have friends or a pack to rely on, so it has a lone warrior attitude.

[00:34:33]Its daily life involves going solo against dangerous prey like venomous snakes, which has made it incredibly bold. In a way, the baboon is a team player and opportunist, whereas the honey badger is a fearless lone survivor. Now, do baboons and honey badgers ever meet in the wild? It's not common, but it can happen. Both can be found scavenging or hunting in overlapping territories in African savanna parks. A baboon might occasionally sniff around a honey badger's area and vice versa. Typically, each would rather avoid a risky fight.

[00:35:09]The baboon could climb a tree or stay away, and the badger would likely shuffle off if a whole baboon troop is around. But if circumstances forced a confrontation, neither is known for backing down easily.

[00:35:25]Weapons and defenses.

[00:35:28]Let's look at each animal's weaponry and defense mechanisms. These are the tools they bring to a fight. Both the baboon and the honey badger are armed to the teeth.

[00:35:38]The chacma baboon has extremely sharp canine teeth, which are actually longer than a lion's canines. An adult male's canines can reach 5 cm in length, jutting out when he bares his fangs. One bite from those jaws can seriously injure or even kill a rival.

[00:35:58]Baboons use their fangs to defend against predators like leopards.

[00:36:03]Along with biting, a baboon can also slash with its incisors and grip with its hands. Remember, baboons have hand-like feet and dextrous fingers, so they can grab or hold an opponent to deliver a bite. Their arms are long and strong, so they might also pummel or wrestle an enemy. Imagine a furious baboon grabbing a smaller animal and biting hard. It's a scary thought.

[00:36:29]In terms of defense, baboons are quite agile. They can run up to about 50 to 50 km per hour in short bursts, which means a baboon could potentially chase down or flee from an opponent if needed. They also have tough skin and a mane of fur around the neck that might give some protection. However, a baboon's best defense in the wild is usually intimidation and help from the troop. A male baboon will scream, show those teeth, and puff up to appear big. Often that display is enough to warn off animals like leopards.

[00:37:04]If intimidation fails, baboons don't shy away from a fight. Males will gang up on a predator and have been known to kill animals like jackals or fend off big cats with their bites. One-on-one though, our baboon can't call for backup, so he'd rely on his own fierceness, speed, and bite.

[00:37:26]The honey badger's whole reputation is built on its weaponry and toughness.

[00:37:30]First, it has strong jaws and sharp teeth as well.

[00:37:35]A honey badger's bite is powerful enough to crack a tortoise shell. That's no small feat.

[00:37:42]Its teeth aren't as long as a baboon's canines, but they are excellent for tearing flesh and not letting go.

[00:37:49]Next, check out its claws. A honey badger has long, sturdy claws about 4 cm long on the front paws that it uses for digging and for fighting. Those claws are like daggers, capable of slashing at opponents or climbing out of burrows quickly. If you've ever seen a badger's claw marks, you know they mean business.

[00:38:11]Perhaps the honey badger's most famous asset is its unbelievable defense, incredibly thick, loose skin. The skin of a honey badger is about 6 mm thick, tougher than the skin of a buffalo, which is many times larger. It's also loose enough that if something grabs the badger, it can twist around inside its own skin to bite back. That means if the baboon managed to chomp on the badger, the badger could writhe and turn on a dime, counter-attacking even while being bitten. On top of that, the honey badger is famously resistant to stings and venom.

[00:38:48]Bee stings don't bother it much, and astonishingly, even venomous snake bites aren't always fatal to a honey badger.

[00:38:56]They've been known to survive cobra bites that would kill other animals.

[00:39:00]This resilience is partly due to that tough skin, and maybe some immunity. So, in a fight, even if the baboon's bite lands, the honey badger might just shrug it off and keep fighting. Honey badgers also have a secret weapon, a stink bomb of sorts. They can release a super smelly liquid from their anal glands when threatened. This foul odor can make predators back off. While it's not a physical injury, it could momentarily distract or disgust a foe.

[00:39:33]Imagine the baboon getting a whiff of that.

[00:39:36]It might hesitate, giving the badger a split-second opening. In terms of agility, honey badgers are not especially fast runners, top speed around [music] 30 km/h, slower than a baboon, but they are scrappy and relentless.

[00:39:52]They don't give up easily.

[00:39:54]They are also excellent diggers. In a pinch, a badger can dig into the ground to escape danger. However, in a face-to-face brawl, digging a hole might not be quick enough to matter.

[00:40:05]Now, let's answer our big question. Who would win? So, who wins? If the baboon gets a perfectly placed bite on the honey badger's skull or throat early on, he could potentially kill the badger.

[00:40:19]The baboon is strong enough to crush the badger if given a good hold or to inflict a mortal wound with a bite.

[00:40:27]However, that scenario is tricky because the badger's loose skin and constant squirming make it hard to land a clean kill shot. On the flip side, the honey badger could seriously injure the baboon with repeated bites to the limbs or by going for the baboon's sensitive parts.

[00:40:45]Even if the badger can't outright kill the baboon quickly, it can make the baboon wish it had never picked a fight.

[00:40:51]Most likely in a prolonged fight, the baboon might give up and flee once it realizes this opponent is not worth the trouble. The honey badger, fearless as it is, would then claim the prize, say the carcass they were fighting over as the baboon hobbles away with bloody scratches. In that sense, the honey badger wins [music] by persistence. It's one of the few animals that could psych out a baboon. There's a reason the honey badger has the reputation of world's most fearless animal. It simply doesn't know when to stop. That said, it's not a one-sided story. If the baboon truly fought to the death, it has the size and power to overpower the badger eventually.

[00:41:37]A baboon's bite to the neck or head of the badger could end the fight. Honey badger skin is tough but not impenetrable, especially around the face.

[00:41:47]A strong baboon could also potentially slam the badger against the ground or a rock causing serious injury. So, in some simulations, the baboon would come out on top. It might come down to individual temperament.

[00:42:01]A particularly aggressive baboon versus a particularly tenacious badger. It's a close contest because it pits brains and brawn versus sheer tenacity and toughness. In many cases, the honey badger's relentlessness might force the baboon to retreat, meaning the badger wins by default. The baboon would likely decide the fight isn't worth dying for and escape into a tree. However, we can't count that as a clear physical victory. If somehow escape isn't possible and they fight to the finish, a large male baboon has a good chance of killing the honey badger, but probably with grievous injuries of his own.

[00:42:43]It's a bit of a toss-up and might depend on who gets the lucky strike. One thing's certain, you wouldn't want to be caught in the middle of this fight. Both animals are tough as nails. The baboon has the edge in size, speed, and smarts, while the honey badger has better natural armor and an I don't care, I'll fight anyone attitude.

[00:43:06]In a direct confrontation, my bet is that the honey badger's fearlessness gives it a psychological edge. It might actually scare a lone baboon off after a fierce tussle, essentially winning the encounter.

[00:43:20]As the old saying goes, honey badger don't care. It will fight no matter who you are.

[00:43:28]The baboon, being more cautious, might decide to save its skin, literally, and run. The fight could go either way, but more often than not, I'd say the honey badger would win by outlasting and intimidating the baboon.

[00:43:45]Unless the baboon manages a perfect bite.

[00:43:50]Honey badger versus lion.

[00:43:53]Who would win a fight between these two animals?

[00:43:58]A honey badger and a lion are two different animals which belong to the completely different [music] species, but there is one thing which is suitable for these animals.

[00:44:10]Both of the animals are fierce fighters.

[00:44:13]It is interesting when you compare a honey badger and a lion as the honey badger is a small one.

[00:44:20]However, that does not mean the lion could attack the honey badger easily because it has tough skin on the body.

[00:44:28]The honey badger is part of the weasel family, related to skunks, otters, ferrets, and other badgers.

[00:44:36]Its proper name is ratel, but it gets the common name honey badger from what seems to be its favorite food, honey.

[00:44:46]Yet, what the animal is actually looking forward to eat are the bee larvae found in the honey.

[00:44:53]Throughout history, the African lion has represented courage and strength.

[00:44:59]The cat is easily recognized both by its roar and the male's mane.

[00:45:05]Lions, which live in groups called prides, are the most social cats.

[00:45:12]These big cats are at the top of the food chain and have no natural predator.

[00:45:19]Description.

[00:45:21]Honey badgers are the largest weasels in Africa.

[00:45:26]They average 22 to 30 in in length, 56 to 76 cm, [music] with 4 to 12 in tails, 10 to 30 cm.

[00:45:38]Females are smaller than males.

[00:45:41]Males weigh between 20 and 35 lb, 9 to 15 kg, while females weigh from 11 to 22 lb, 5 to 10 kg.

[00:45:54]These animals have small eyes and a large skull.

[00:45:59]The neck and shoulders are strong and muscular.

[00:46:03]The hind feet of the animal are small having short claws, whereas the front feet are conversely strong and wide having large claws, which helps the animal in catching prey and running.

[00:46:18]Being thick and loose, their skin is extremely difficult to seize for predators. Meanwhile, it allows the animal to extricate itself and bite the opponent.

[00:46:29]The honey badger is dark black ventrally having the characteristic [music] dorsal mantle, which is typically gray or bright white extending the whole length of its body and turning to black at the base of the tail.

[00:46:45]Honey badgers have a special anal gland that ejects a strong-smelling liquid used to mark territory, deter predators, and possibly calm bees.

[00:46:57]Lions can grow to between 9 to 10 ft long, 3 m, from head to tail with the tail being about 2 to 3 ft long, 60 to 91 cm.

[00:47:10]They typically weigh between 330 to 550 lb, 150 to 250 kg, with males reaching the higher end of that range.

[00:47:24]Not only are male lions generally larger than females, but they also have a distinctive thick mane of hair around their heads that females lack.

[00:47:35]The biggest and most fabulous manes are more impressive to mating [music] females and more intimidating to competing males.

[00:47:44]Adult lions range in color from buff to gray to various shades of brown. Both males and females are powerful muscular cats with rounded heads and ears.

[00:47:58]The lion's bite is the weakest amongst all the big cats at just about 600 PSI, whereas the jaguar has the strongest bite at 2,000 PSI.

[00:48:11]The lion's jaw can be opened up to almost 1 ft in diameter.

[00:48:18]Habitat and distribution.

[00:48:21]These mammals are found across portions of Africa and Asia, inhabiting the entirety of sub-Saharan Africa, >> [music] >> as well as Iran, Nepal, Turkmenistan, and India.

[00:48:35]Their range spreads from southern Morocco to South Africa, and from the Caspian Sea to western India.

[00:48:43]Ratel's are fans of dry habitats where they can dig up burrowing creatures and tear open dry trees. They are also found in forests, as well as grasslands. They use their powerful front claws to dig a long burrow to sleep and bear their young. With such a quarrelsome animal, it should be no surprise that they are more than willing to steal the burrows of other creatures.

[00:49:10]African lions live in Angola, Botswana, Mozambique, Tanzania, the Central African Republic, South Sudan, and other parts of sub-Saharan Africa.

[00:49:22]Male lions defend the pride's territory, which may include an area of 100 sq mi, 259 sq km, of shrubs, grasslands, and open woodlands. Asiatic lions are found only in the Indian state of Gujarat, western India, where most reside in the protected Gir Forest [music] National Park, a 545 sq mi, 1,412 sq km, wildlife haven.

[00:49:57]The Indian government designated this land, which includes a deciduous forest, grasslands, [music] scrub jungle, and rocky hills as a wildlife sanctuary in 1965.

[00:50:10]According to Gir National Park Diet Like other members of the weasel family, honey badgers are primarily carnivores.

[00:50:21]They are solitary hunters, except during the breeding season, when they may hunt in pairs. Usually, honey badgers forage during the day, but they will hunt at night near human habitation.

[00:50:35]While they favor honey, they hunt insects, frogs, birds, and their eggs, small mammals, and small reptiles. They also eat carrion, fruits, and vegetables.

[00:50:47]Lions are carnivores, and [music] hunting is mostly done by the females.

[00:50:52]The hunting is done in groups, and lions ambush from a close distance from their prey.

[00:50:59]Their prey consists of large animals like zebras, antelopes, buffalo, wildebeest, giraffes, and even elephants. On an average, a single lion can kill 15 large animals in a year.

[00:51:14]Lions also scavenge food from other predators like hyenas and cheetahs.

[00:51:20]Although the lioness does most of the hunting, the male lions often take [music] first right to the carcass. On an average, an adult lion will consume 18 lb of meat in one day.

[00:51:34]Behavior Meanwhile, this badger is a solitary animal, typically having a large home range. In addition, they are nomadic, making daily foraging trips. Male badgers can travel up to 27 km daily, whereas females tend [music] to make shorter trips of about 10 km per day.

[00:51:56]After foraging, adult males often congregate to socialize, communicating with each other by grunts, sniffing one another, as well as wallowing in the sand. However, honey badgers are commonly known as aggressive animals, so these interactions between males occasionally grow to confrontations.

[00:52:17]Lions can be either nocturnal, being active at night, or crepuscular, showing increased activity at dusk and before sunset.

[00:52:27]Lions spend the greater part of the day resting. These animals rest in order to save energy in the absence of prey or to escape the midday heat. African lions are highly social animals, gathering in groups or prides, which include up to three male lions and multiple lionesses with their young.

[00:52:49]Prides are defended by males who patrol and mark the territory. However, there's a harsh competition between males for the territory and position in the pride.

[00:53:01]Now, let's see the battle between a honey badger and a lion.

[00:53:06]It is obvious that the lion will win this battle in any situation, but the lion has to put in the effort to kill this honey badger and face its impressive hunting skills.

[00:53:19]The honey badger has strong skin, which is not easy to bite.

[00:53:24]The honey badger will never fear a lion's attack and will try to take revenge against it.

[00:53:30]The honey badger has strong skin, which is not easy to bite. This makes the lion's fight heavily and put effort into defeating the honey badger. In fact, [music] the honey badger will release a strong odor.

[00:53:45]It's long feet will cause some nasty damage and they use it when they need it against prey. It has a strong skull and cannot be cracked easily like tortoise shell.

[00:53:57]Also, it's awful odor will distract the lion and pose some danger. As a result, it is very hard to win against the honey badger.

[00:54:07]But still, the lion wins.

[00:54:10]Now let's imagine that both a lion and a honey badger were the same size. Which would win [music] in a fight now?

[00:54:19]If the honey badger grew to the size of the fully grown adult male lion, I think it's bite force combined with the now much larger length [music] of its teeth would knock out the lion.

[00:54:35]Which animal would win in a fight?

[00:54:39]The honey badger or Komodo dragon?

[00:54:43]The honey badger and Komodo dragon are two ferocious animals that are well-known throughout the world.

[00:54:50]So everyone is quite interested and eagerly wants to know about their facts and comparison.

[00:54:57]Honey badgers, also known as ratels, are notoriously tough members of the weasel family known for their tough skin and vicious demeanor.

[00:55:08]Though they are called a honey badger, they are actually less closely related to badgers than previously thought.

[00:55:17]Komodo dragons are large Indonesian lizards famous for their voracious appetite.

[00:55:23]These imposing reptiles sport a venom-laden mouth, a set of sharp teeth, and a keen sense of smell.

[00:55:33]What's even more impressive? They are the largest living lizard species.

[00:55:40]The name comes from rumors that a dragon-like creature lived on the Indonesian island of Komodo.

[00:55:48]Size and description.

[00:55:52]They have a body length of 2.2 to 4 ft, 0.7 to 1.2 m, and a tail length of 6.7 [music] to 12 in, 17 to 30 cm.

[00:56:06]It measures 9 to 12 in, 23 to 30 cm at shoulder height.

[00:56:12]Weight can differ considerably between males and females, with males ranging from 22 to 30 lb, 10 to 14 kg, and females 11 to 26 lb, 5 to 12 kg.

[00:56:29]Rattles look more like a weasel than they do a badger.

[00:56:33]These creatures are long-bodied with short legs and a broad girth.

[00:56:39]They have very loose and thick skin, giving them the ability to turn freely and fight when grabbed.

[00:56:46]They have long, coarse fur that lacks an undercoat.

[00:56:51]The fur on their back is white or gray, and from the shoulders down they are black.

[00:56:57]The average size of a male Komodo dragon is 8 to 9 ft and about 200 lb.

[00:57:06]Females grow to 6 ft, 1.8 m.

[00:57:11]Komodos come in a variety of colors, including blue, orange, green, and gray.

[00:57:18]Their skin is rough and durable, reinforced with bony [music] plates called osteoderms.

[00:57:25]They have long claws and a large, muscular tail.

[00:57:30]Komodos have good vision. They can see objects as far away as 985 ft 300 m.

[00:57:39]They are also speedy.

[00:57:41]They can run briefly up to 13 mph 20 km/h.

[00:57:47]Their sense of smell is their primary food detector, however.

[00:57:52]Komodo dragons, like snakes, use their forked tongues to sample the air and then touch the tongue to the roof of their mouth where special organs analyze the airborne molecules.

[00:58:07]Range and habitat.

[00:58:11]Honey badgers are found across portions of Africa and Asia inhabiting the entirety of sub-Saharan Africa as well as Iran, Nepal, Turkmenistan, and India.

[00:58:25]Their range spreads from southern Morocco to South Africa and from the Caspian Sea to western India.

[00:58:33]Rattles are fans of dry habitats where they can dig up burrowing creatures and tear open dry trees.

[00:58:41]They are also found in forests as well as grasslands.

[00:58:45]They use their powerful front claws to dig a long burrow to sleep and bear their young.

[00:58:52]With such a quarrelsome animal, it should be no surprise that they are more than willing to steal the burrows of other creatures.

[00:59:01]Komodos are very rare and are found in the wild only on five islands the lesser Sunda Islands of Komodo Rinca, Gili Motang, and Gili Dasami all within Komodo National Park and the island of Flores where the Komodo roams freely.

[00:59:22]The lizard's habitat can be anything from a tropical dry forest to a savanna to a deciduous monsoon forest.

[00:59:31]No matter where they live, the Komodo likes extreme heat.

[00:59:36]It is usually around 95° Fahrenheit, 35° C, with 70% humidity [music] on the islands of Indonesia.

[00:59:49]Diet.

[00:59:52]These predators are not particularly picky eaters.

[00:59:56]They will consume just about anything that is edible, making them opportunistic feeders.

[01:00:03]As anyone with a sweet tooth will know, honey is delicious, [music] and honey badgers agree.

[01:00:10]While they enjoy hunting and tearing apart bees' nests, it is definitely not the only thing they will feast on.

[01:00:19]Some of the items on their menu include rodents, birds, insects, reptiles, frogs, fruits, vegetables, and berries.

[01:00:30]Komodo dragons are carnivores, meaning they eat meat.

[01:00:34]They are such fierce hunters, they can eat very large prey, such as large water buffalo, deer, carrion, and pigs.

[01:00:44]They will also eat smaller dragons.

[01:00:47]The Komodo has a unique way of killing its prey.

[01:00:51]First, it springs up and knocks the prey over with its huge feet.

[01:00:56]Then they use their sharp, serrated teeth, which are a lot like a shark's, to shred their prey to death.

[01:01:05]If the prey escapes, it will die within 24 hours of blood poisoning.

[01:01:12]With its fantastic sense of smell, the Komodo will find the dead animal and finish its meal.

[01:01:21]Behavior.

[01:01:23]Honey are solitary and nomadic. They occupy a large range, moving around daily to forage.

[01:01:31]Female honey badgers tend to travel shorter distances per day, around 10 km, while males may forage for as much as 27 km per day.

[01:01:43]Males have been known to meet up with other adult-sized honey badgers after foraging and exchange grunts while sniffing each other and rolling around in the sand.

[01:01:55]Honey badgers are notoriously aggressive animals. Males in particular defend mates with incredible ferocity if threatened.

[01:02:04]Male interactions become aggressive if one of the males attempts to intrude into the marked burrows, they begin a dominance dance to determine who will stay.

[01:02:16]Komodo dragons spend the day roaming their home ranges, which can be as large as 1.9 square kilometers.

[01:02:25]They do not defend these home ranges, so ranges can overlap, but if food is found in a shared area, the dominant dragon gets to eat first.

[01:02:37]When food is found, the largest males are always first to eat, followed by smaller males and females, and then by juveniles who descend from the trees to eat once the adults have left.

[01:02:51]Their saliva contains more than 50 different strains of bacteria that can result in the death of prey from infection, even after only being bitten.

[01:03:04]Varanus komodoensis digs burrows that it retreats into at night and when the weather is very hot.

[01:03:12]In a fight to the death between the fearless honey badger and the great Komodo dragon.

[01:03:18]Who would win?

[01:03:21]The main thing to note is that honey badgers are a fearless species and very aggressive.

[01:03:27]They can start fighting with predators without knowing about their size and characteristics because they don't have any fear of any animal.

[01:03:37]Sometimes they even start a fight with a lion.

[01:03:41]The honey badger has the strongest and most powerful teeth, jaws, and claws and is immune to poison.

[01:03:49]They are very smart and emit a strong odor that is used as a form of defense against large predators like lions.

[01:03:58]It has sharp and powerful eyes that help them to see their enemies from a long distance.

[01:04:05]The Komodo dragons are known for their venomous bite that has various secret toxic proteins.

[01:04:13]The Komodo dragon is blood tinged for a reason. Its teeth are completely covered with gingival tissues and it naturally lacerates when they are feeding their young ones.

[01:04:26]The honey badger has a good immune system that can even withstand a bite of a king cobra while the Komodo dragon has saliva which is very toxic.

[01:04:37]If the match was based purely on size, the Komodo dragon would be an obvious favorite.

[01:04:43]But there's much more to take into consideration.

[01:04:47]It is known that often the Komodo dragon just bites its prey to infect it with its toxic saliva.

[01:04:55]Prada dies after 24 hours and with its fantastic sense of smell the Komodo will find the dead animal and finish its meal.

[01:05:05]But what about an animal that doesn't give up?

[01:05:09]Because the honey badgers keep on fighting until the attacker gets tired and gives up hope.

[01:05:16]I don't know what to say.

[01:05:18]I tend to be with the dragon because of its size, but if the toxic effect of the saliva won't make its effect, it's hard for me to believe that it will win.

[01:05:29]I think it will be a draw.

[01:05:32]What's your opinion?
