What is a "hornet"?
A hornet is a large and aggressive wasp that typically builds its nests in trees or underground, known for its potent sting and distinct coloration. Hornets are social insects and live in colonies, with a queen leading the colony and workers carrying out various tasks such as foraging and nest building. They are known for their powerful flight capabilities and can be a source of fear and concern due to their stinging behavior.
