Honey badger filmed fighting off leopards in South Africa

Wildlife enthusiasts in South Africa have shared footage of a honey badger fighting off a mother leopard and her two cubs at Kruger National Park.

Field guide Dan Fiser and business consultant Paola Murguia shared the story with LatestSightings.com – a website that shares footages of wildlife sightings and experiences.
