What would be the safest thing to do if your in danger by a honey badger?

Hands off

Don't try to touch them because their skin is tough and loose and they can quickly turn around and attack, and don't try to get them with a weapon as their skin is very hard to penetrate and would only irritate them further

Don't provoke them

When they feel threatened, they will attack and they are fierce fighters

Stay on the ground

Don't climb trees because they are very good climbers and will eventually catch up to you
