Imagine a really, really big wasp who decided it wanted to be a villain in a cartoon. This creature is about the size of your thumb—if your thumb were to enter a bodybuilding competition. It's got a loud buzz that sounds like a tiny motorcycle revving up, and its face looks like it just swallowed a lemon! Its body is striped in a way that wouldn’t pass fashion school, and it has a penchant for crashing your outdoor picnic like an uninvited guest. When it stings, it’s like getting poked by a hot needle, but it’s just really trying to make a dramatic entrance. So basically, it’s like nature’s way of reminding you that not all bugs are friendly!
