Who knew that honey badgers were so darn clever, huh? Well, certainly not zookeeper Brian. A lion attack at his zoo had seen the need for the honey badgers to be kept strictly under control and monitored. They had to be caged in for their safety. But it turns out that honey badgers like to roam. And don’t dig being told what to do…

But that shouldn’t matter, should it? Humans can outsmart badgers, surely? After all, how hard can it be to keep a few honey badgers enclosed? Well, harder than you might imagine, actually! As this BBC animal documentary shows us, these sneaky things really are ‘Masters of Mayhem’!

Brian attempts to build an animal Alcatraz, but the prison breaks started and just couldn’t be stopped. One particular badger proved himself to be an ingenious Houdini-type figure who could always find an escape route. And the footage proves HILARIOUS! Check it out:
