The honey badger (Mellivora capensis) is listed as the "world's most fearless animal" in the Guinness Book of World Records. There was cases when a honey badger forced a couple of lions to retreat !! Unfortunately, I was not able to take a good photo of this amazing beast. He moved very quickly and was constantly against the sun.
