Some species can go extinct and I don’t care. This is one.

Right up there with the Japanese Hornet, which is nightmare fuel as well.

How does that thing fly? Wings look kinda small in relation to body...must be very high rate of beating....

I believe I read somewhere that it has to do with the lift characteristics of the vortices produced by the wings...but this species is bigger than the bumble bee. Understood by the minds of men or not....impressive and seemingly a highly “lucky” development.

It looks like another good argument for bringing back DDT.
To: Red Badger
According to whose faulty calculations?
I remember hearing that in the 2000s, along with “your pet cat recognizes you as another cat” (utterly ridiculous).
