Honey Badgers at Naples Zoo

Odds are if you’ve heard of a honey badger this year, it was through a You Tube video posted by Randall’s Wild Wild World of Animals.

With more than 14.5 million views so far, the honey badger video and Randall’s fame is growing. But this is not your average nature special video – and definitely not for kids as this would earn a PG-13 rating

While his irreverent narration and profanity are not for everyone’s ears, his take on the honey badger’s behavior has sparked an unprecedented interest in these extraordinary creatures. Christopher Gordon, one of the crew from Randall’s Wild Wild World of Animals, filmed the premiere of the new honey badger habitat at Naples Zoo on Saturday, August 20. Randall created his unique voice-over and released a new video.
