      No. Lions can't afford even the smallest injury so it generally isn't worth getting into it with a animal that can't even feed one lion. But lions will kill honey badgers if the badger is too aggressive.

    I’ve only met one badger in person, and we tried to remove him from our barn as it had killed a few chickens and rabbits. 2 wounded and 1 dead dog later (labs and a Sheppard) thought me a new respect for them. Fearless is an understatement. Dad brought his .22 gun and fired a few shots, which only served to piss the thing off even more. It wasn’t a honey badger, it was an American badger. Meeting it might be just a childhood memory, but it was unforgettable.

Let's say we are talking about trash bags and how if they were living their lives would suck (This could obviously never happen, but adding human elements to non-human things has been done since the beginning of humankind and can be used for comedy). I could then talk from the point of a view trash bag, off of what I think a trash bag might say if they were living. Something like "You have no idea of how it feels to constantly have food scraps and moldy rags stuffed in your mouth. Nobody ever offers me a proper dinner." This is a scenario that could never happen but personifying and humanizing objects and animals and putting them in impossible situations, or making them say things they never could is a way some people tell stories or jokes (Toy story is a whole movie that follows the point of view of objects).
