The Honey Guides

When the honey guide cries, follow where she leads, past elephants and zebras, snakes and sleeping lions, to the place where there is treasure.

The honey-guides are a small family of picarian birds related to the barbets, the woodpeckers, and the toucans. The family contains eleven species classified in four genera. All but two of these species are found only in Africa south of the Sahara -- the two exceptions are Asiatic in distribution, one in the Himalayas, and one in Burma, Siam, Malay, Sumatra, and Borneo.

Detective Mollel, a former Maasai warrior in Nairobi, investigates the brutal murder of a prostitute and suspects the killing is part of a far more extensive plot associated with the turbulent elections of 2007.

After teaching his son how to find honey by following the honey-guide bird, an African father insists that they thank the bird by sharing some of the honey with it.

Two funny, light-hearted traditional tales from Africa.

Never before has wildlife narration been this bold and this hilarious. More than 40 million people have viewed Randall’s honey badger video, “The Crazy Nastyass Honey Badger.” “It has no regard for anyone or anything—it just takes what it wants! What a little badass!” When viewing wildlife footage, who hasn’t thought at times, “Ewww! What the hell is that?!” Randall thinks it — and says so! In Honey Badger Don’t Care, Randall examines and humorously informs on a dozen crazy, nasty animals of the wild kingdom employing his unique style of telling it like it is! His wildlife writing is refreshingly honest. If an animal scares Randall, he’s not afraid to share. Unlike most nature writers, Randall doesn’t deliver the sugarcoated or drab description. He “goes there” and shares his true feelings with his audience. Because of this, his readers feel that they can relate. Randall loves animals—even the ones that terrify him. He may not agree with how these animals conduct themselves in the world, but Randall wants everyone to know who they are. Just as he introduced the world to the honey badger, the Jesus lizard, and others, so will Randall shed light on twelve bizarre and interesting animals. Designed with callouts, sidebars, and more than fifty photos, Honey Badger Don’t Care presents a wildlife book for adults—hilarious, irreverent, profane, yet charming, chatty, and informative. Don’t be stupid—buy this book!
