20 Japanese Hornets Massacre 30,000 Honeybees

“All it takes is one. One enterprising scout to find the honey bee colony. Mark it with a pheromone. Return with a band of natural born killers. And make all hell break lose.” Sounds like the latest Tarantino? Close. It’s the beginning of a National Geographic video that documents the annihilation of 30,000 European honey bees by 30 (yes, 30!) Asian giant hornets. We’ve found out more about these bullies of the insect world.


Wild...and fascinating...
