[jbett98]

Hard to tell bro. Could you maybe pick it up next time and get a closer picture? Just cup it gently in your hands, it won't mind

Just like that mean as hell drunk yellow jacket that I accidentally pulled off some over ripe fermented blueberry bush I was picking from.
My hand swelled up like a catchers mitt.

Great, just what we needed: murder hornets now armed with advanced dental care technology. Thanks Washington state.

More wasted tax money. Some day I will tell the story of the "almost poached" calf elk we found opening morning a few years back.

Might zoom in to see it better! Never seen one of these before!

I did a google search on this image and have identified the species. It's a freshwater crab. Weird, but I'm sure there's a lot of things about nature that we still don't understand.

Screw the flying crabs
Get a load of this! The Coconut crab
Coming out with the garbage on a bleary morning and seeing this could cure your constipation...

Seriously however and while not a hornet I had a friend who was bitten by a black widow and went into immediate anaphylactic shock.

He said the pain was immediate all over his body, he began to have problems breathing and had to be rushed to the hospital and spent a couple days in it after receiving antivenom to counterattack the effects.

Nah, just made me hungry. Are they good eating? I mean if you don't feed them garbage?

NO! Having seen them in the wilds, nobody wanted anything to do with them, I guess they are super tough and chewy, in a pinch, they might fill the gut, but don't expect to like it! Fortunately, they are also very SLOW, so you don't have to worry about getting ambushed by them unless you fall asleep on the beach and one decides to check you out!

I found some recipes for coconut crab but it's just regular crab in coconut sauce. And there are no shrimps the size of coconuts either.

That's why they are locationally extinct from areas that they used to inhabit. I wouldn't want them in my backyard and would probably use a shotgun on any I saw.

We need #12 shot for murder hornets. Hornet Shot (sand shot?). Maybe Hornetdy can design some.

It won't do you any good.. Like a Grizzly Bear, your best bet is to use a 22LR and shoot the guy next to you in the leg an be able to run as fast as you can
