It would seem hyenas have a death wish, as they often find themselves engaged in battles with ferocious and sneaky Honey Badgers. We've previously seen a hyena get involved with a honey badger, and be forced to just give up and walk away with its tail between it's hind legs.
Hyenas are powerful carnivores that are both adept at running and deadly with their teeth-based attacking style. This makes them a tough fighter in the wild, and all things being equal they rarely loose battles. Nonetheless, one is not really a match for the virtually invincible Honey Badger. Hyenas are rarely social animals, but they must have thought if they teamed up they'd have a chance against this Honey Badger. This pride of lions that attacked a Honey Badger can attest that fightning in numbers rarely help in a battle with the Honey Badger!
