Scientists have found a dead Asian giant hornet north of Seattle, the first so-called murder hornet discovered in the country this year, federal and state investigators said Wednesday.
Entomologists from the state and U.S. Agriculture departments said it’s the first confirmed report from Snohomish County, north of Seattle, and appears to be unrelated to the 2019 and 2020 findings of the hornets in Canada and Whatcom County, along the Canadian border, that gained widespread attention.
The 2-inch-long (5-centimeter-long) invasive insects, first found near the U.S.-Canadian border in December 2019, are native to Asia and pose a threat to honeybees and native hornet species. While not particularly aggressive toward humans, their sting is extremely painful and repeated stings, though rare, can kill.
Probably died of a drug overdose flying through the pot and drug infested air which permeates the city..
Eco-terriorism.
Maybe it committed suicide.
I mean it is a murder hornet after all.
“While not particularly aggressive toward humans, their sting is extremely painful and repeated stings, though rare, can kill”.
Sounds like a whole lotta fear mongering reporting done to me.
Evidently, a lot of people are mistaking Cicadia killers for murder hornets. Cicadia killers are BIG.
Let me guess..two bullets to the back of the head
What did this hornet have on the Clintons
“Probably died of a drug overdose flying through the pot and drug infested air which permeates the city..”
In Blaine?
LOL
No prob. We don’t need high tech. Just lots of 💩.

Maybe he is part of the crew behind the Clinton count and was about to confess?
And the COVID death meter increments by one more
no, it really is a big deal.
if the murder hornets can be killed before they get established then it will save probably 100s of millions of dollars in ecological damage when they spread and kill all the honey bees.
Just think, if the Chinese had contained and destroyed all the sars-covid viruses before they escaped into the wild.
it may be too late already though.
The local news said it was very desiccated, might have been from last year.
C-mon man, you know it's FReeper protocol to only comment on the thread headline!
Dead from exposure to unleashed liberalism!
If I didn’t know you already I would call you out for no sarcasm tag.
I never had a Murder Hornet.
Oh no. I live in Eastern WAand am extremely sensitive to stings. Extremely. Plus, my cat is probably at risk too. Somebody please murder the murder hornets. NOW
What about a killer bee?
