Asian Hornet
Vespa mandarinia
SPECIES OVERVIEW
A highly feared and despised insect, the asian murder hornet is a well rounded and capable flying destruction machine. Some of the smallest hornet workers are even bigger than the queens of some other species.
​
Hornets are the true owners of the skies and are highly accomplished predators. A hornet hive will often totally decimate bee hives, and other insects in the area. While these raids take place he workers defend their hive with their potent stingers.
​
Their enormous mandibles can tear through even the hardest carapace and if that fails their venom is so strong that death is almost always assured.
​
