Honey Badger vs. Bee Hive | Nature on PBS

Honey Badgers: Masters of Mayhem airs Wednesday, February 19, 2014 on PBS. For more, visit www.pbs.org/wne... Honey badgers do indeed enjoy honey and they have become a scourge to beekeepers, shrugging off countless stings as it breaks into their hives. As the Nature on PBS program details, beekeeper Guy Stubbs tries to devise a hive that will thwart them, but effective badger-proof hives prove difficult to design. When Stubbs is ready to field test his latest effort, he enlists Stoffel and Hammy, a younger female badger, to try their luck, and can't believe it when his hopes are dashed yet again.

You can't outsmart Stoffel. He's a genius escape artist.

[@TheGravygun]

When you stop feeding him he's going to get out

[@Clandestine0814]

So it’s Stoffel. The most popular badger in the world 🤣🤣

[@Road_Rash]

Stoffel is the king of honey badgers! Perfect one to test out any security measures...if Stoffel can't get into it, it can't be gotten into...Long live King Stoffel!

[@draphotube4315]

Stoffel is a badger of focus, determination, and sheer will; i once saw Stoffel climb a mofo stick in a cage, a mofo stick, who can do that?

[@sherylehunter1635]

[@momthegreatest]

Diabetics will be shocked to see Honeybadgers eating the entire Honeycomb.

[@RebelCannonClub74]

If the bear is a submarine mine, the honey badger is C4.

[@kcluu9390]

BADGER is evolving to... HONEY BADGER!

[@matthewwaddington2777]

[@Noonesaccount-rb4qr]

If a badger has the guts to attack a bee hive that’s how it got its name

[@mikielsahagun6054]

💝Stoffel💝👍

[@Adventure1292]

Honey badgers dn't underestimate the the size of this creature small but effective😂

[@TheHedgehogGiraffe]

STOFFEL! This guy is literally famous

[@donovanbradford8231]

Suppy funny Stoffel comes out and says another test for me to prove I am smarter than humans. Honey is my goal I accept your challenge. 20 minutes later the honey is gone give me more.

[@erulind]

Badass, simply doesn't care.

[@TheYavy]

[@flyingpaladin617]

[@afkarnadhifa]

I know for sure those things are deadly but they kinda look cute

[@Celestial_Wing]

Those poor bees I hope the Queen was ok and managed to rebuild else where

[@Mutchco]

We consult and run everything by Stoffel from now on and we pay him in honey

[@officialJOY1229]

I feel sad when he’s stung 🐝

[@atlanta2076]

Stoffel, the Jack Bauer of Badgers. «WHERE IS THE HONEY?!?»

[@Eric-rm4uu]

I thought I had seen the last of stoffel in that last video where he keeps escaping 😅

[@obibraxton2232]

Like the 5th video I’ve seen on Honey Badger stoffel 😂 is he what the only badger or the like alive ?

[@snakefinger812]

Dudes scales that tree like Remo Williams

[@TwiceSmittenOnceShy]

Did they REALLY think that was going to stop him though..?? Like, REALLY..?? It wasn’t even that elevated 🤣 Don’t worry, I know that wasn’t the overarching point, but still 💁🏾‍♂️

[@honeybadger2801]

🔥

[@JusticeLogic819]

Put a metal sheath around the trunk,would be too slipery,they do this in NZ to keep possoms off the power lines

[@globe2555]

The Badger wasn't smart enough to move the stick with honey further away from the Bees.

[@BELIEVEhasNOPLACE-WhreTRUTHis]

💪🏻 S T O F F L E 💪🏻

[@thisguyderrick6782]

[@geoleo965]

Of course, it was going to be Stoffel and his son.

[@TraciPeteyforlife]

If he can stop Stoffle he can stop anything.

[@paula.m.4996]

For some reason this made me feel itchy.

[@notsopro8232]

How to stop a honey badger: .308 Win

[@ErickMaciasJuarez]

Stoffle's last name must be Goggins

[@Tcray430]

Anything for the honey

[@MsVendetter]

I heard they use a disguting odor to scare away the bees, why didn't he make use of it there?

[@ගජමිතුරෝ-භ4ඤ]

clever boy badgy😍😍😍😍

[@eternalbeing3339]

Honey badger love honey.

[@musarra195]

Honey badger proof? Impossible

[@alisonyemm3106]

Cute

[@mec4lifesmiley700]

Note to this genius, if they don't eat the honey they will eat something else on the farms. If you badger proof everything what will they servive on?

[@ghall1964]

Seriously, it's not that hard d to make a badger proof bee hive. Simply place the hives 5 feet + off the ground, on a four legged table . Then place an upside down cone , on each of the legs. If the cones are 30 plus inches diameter , at the fat end, and made of alluminum or stainless steel. There is no way it can get up over it. Plain and simple.

[@AdmiralBonetoPick]

If Stoffel is so smart, how come he keeps getting caught.

[@petersyme7083]

He has never lived in the wild, escaping is just for fun.

[@cattercrown]

A small price to pay for honey

[@stevenguevara2184]

Stoffel keeps the humansin a house. They dont keep him in a cage

[@spirit1663]

poor bees got eaten, poor badger got stung

[@mintjuliper9689]

Hammy wasn't haven't any of that bullshit heh

[@lenledwidge5367]

Thank God there are none up here in Northern Alberta, they would destroy everything a trapper has. Like the wolverine, you don't want to piss this critter off. They will follow you around and destroy everything and run you off, nasty bad they are

[@generalaukhumeb3388]

Chuck Norris, this one

[@SPGALTRM3790]

0:32 sounds like whitecat

[@Kitties_are_pretty]

This is like a Saw movie.

[@OtherSideOfTheVoid]

with seth rogen

[@benrtinez36]

damn you guys are old now.

[@erickeet1309]

Whys the honey badger feeling pain? I thought honey badgers don't give a shit.

[@thyduck7542]

They feel pain, they don't give a fuck

[@critterfreek83]

They experience pain, but it's just an irrelevance to them. Or it just makes the badger angrier. :)

[@nokiao2105]

its tickle tickle to them

[@MRGF78]

didn't stop him though... just a minor setback...

[@ROFLorean]

Who else came here from Creature Talk 114?

[@mec4lifesmiley700]

Wonder how much money has been waisted on this guy and his studies? In the meantime millions live In severe poverty in his country.

[@kevinfowler8712]

Even the animal kingdom is oppressed. 🤦🏿‍♂️

[@unworthy1582]

It is time to get right with Jesus. You aren’t going to automatically enter into heaven if you have lied or stolen or had premarital sex. Even one of those makes you worthy of hell fire. Don’t deceive yourself! The punishment of sin is hell fire. Jesus died so you can get a clean slate and forgiveness of a future sin when we confess it. When you start to follow him you have to strive to obey what he commands. No one will enter heaven without the blood of Jesus over you. No other way but through Jesus

[@petersyme7083]

Heaven must be almost empty and those that are there must be really boring

[@Eric_the_miserable_midget]

Good luck with a badger proof anything
