Hi Gryphon,

Dogs do get killed by honeybadgers. Not only do they have to teeth, claws & temper to seriously injure a dog, but they have such a long coat on then that a dog can't get a good grip to do any damage in return....... although I guess they would struggle with something the size of a Rhodesian Ridgeback....... I don't really know the size of a Tazzie Devil, but a honeybadger is pretty big and bloody powerful. At least I wouldn't like to have one chewing on any part of me!!!.........especially the bits they like to chew on!

As much as I'd like to, I've never hunted Oz, so I know even less about your hunting dogs than I know about your game. I'm a bloody fool really as I used to have an uncle in Queensland who owned a big farm up there. He used to tell me that I had an open invitation to go and hunt there and I never got round to it!......... too late now. We buried him a few years ago......... had to really. Dead you know.............
