This article describes the predation of endangered Houbara bustards (<i>Chlamydotis macqueenii</i>) by a honey badger (<i>Mellivora capensis wilsoni</i>) in a captive breeding facility in Saudi Arabia on 12 December 2009. The observations during trapping honey badgers in 2010 and in previous years, as well as attacks and predation by honey badgers on other trapped predators of bustards such as Ruppell's foxes (<i>Vulpes rueppellii</i>) and red foxes (<i>V. vulpes arabica</i>), are also discussed.
