Asian Giant Hornet, Trapped Queen #2

in nature •  7 years ago 

Wow those queens are huge!
I live with some big hornets here in Thailand, I leave them alone and they leave me be.
Sometimes one will come and hover right in front of my face to check me out.
I know some people who believe the stings to have therapeutic value, and that the hornet itself can sense your illness and give you a sting.
Nature and the miracles of life are pretty fascinating...
Cheers, A.

That is super interesting. I know some folks here in Japan toss them in their alcohol and then let the mixture sit for 2 or 3 years. Whatever extra from the hornet is also in some medicinal-type energy drinks. As the sting itself can rot flesh, I am not sure how this all works!!
