Sweet Partnership In Africa, a delicate bird and a tough badger work as partners. Although the two creatures are very different, they both love the food that honeybees provide. The bird, called a honeyguide, eats honeycomb. The badger is called a honey badger. Honey badgers will eat almost anything, but as their name suggests, they especially love honey. The honeyguide is a good flier and knows how to find bees’ nests, but it is a tiny, dainty bird. It is not strong enough to break into the nests to reach the honeycomb. The honey badger, however, is a fierce, powerful animal. Its long, sharp claws are perfect for breaking open bees’ nests. In addition, it has thick fur and tough skin to protect it from stinging bees. The two animals cooperate to get what they both want. When the honeyguide is ready for a meal, it looks for a honey badger. The honeyguide hovers around the badger’s head, fanning its tail and calling to get the badger’s attention. The honey badger follows the honeyguide to the bees’ nest. The honeyguide stops every few seconds to wait for the badger.
