Two Inch Hornet

Recently scientists from Conservation International and Disney’s Animal Kingdom started out on a two month expedition into six regions of the Tibetan “Sacred Lands” in the mountains of Southwest China and Nepal.

They have found and rediscovered many species; one of which is called the “Yak Killer” by locals. The Vespa Mandarinia, or giant Asian hornet measures two inches long. Their quarter-inch-long stingers deliver venom strong enough to dissolve human flesh, and has been known to kill yaks.
