A honey badger was rescued from the coils of a python by two jackals and was then helped by them in killing the snake before he turned on his new friends to steal the reptile.

Roselyne Kerjosse captured the spectacular fight to the death while on safari in Chobe Park, Botswana last month.

When the 60-year-old began recording, the honey badger was in mortal danger, with the python wrapping its entire body around it.

This is a synopsis of life in Chicago’s rough side of town. The badger’s name is LeRoy Brown because he is meaner than a junkyard dog.

They are indeed. However, for some unknown reason, the airlines won't let me bring Rupert, my support honey badger, on board.

One of the jackals tried to grab the python and the head of the python lunged toward the jackal, allowing the Honey badger to break free of the python’s grip. I don’t think the jackal was “rescuing” the badger. He wanted to eat the snake.
