Maybe. Badgers are a lot smarter than a dog or cat.

So, they'll escape and terrorize the neighborhood?

I'm not just talking about honey badgers. I'd like to discuss the snuggly North American variety.

I just got into badgers a couple of months ago, and I think they're fucking cute.

honey badgers aren't actually badgers. The name is a colloquialism that was never changed and became coined.
Elephant shrew suffers a similar fate

Honey badgers are badass though. I've seen one attack a full grown leopard.

What are they then?

>The honey badger (Mellivora capensis), also known as the ratel is the only species in the mustelid subfamily Mellivorinae and its only genus Mellivora. It is native to Africa, Southwest Asia, and the Indian subcontinent. Despite its name, the honey badger does not closely resemble other badger species; instead, it bears more anatomical similarities to weasels.

No, fuck them

Shit, all this time I thought they were a type of elephant.
