I got way too close to a wasp and got away with it
This insect was found in the back woods of campus climbing on a tree it’s a type of Wasp the species name is Ichneumon coming from the super family Ichneumonidae Wasp quite a mouthful I know. These wasps are parasitic and their Young’s are often injected into other species where they are then hatched and eat the host in which they inhabited. There are many types of shapes and sizes they come in but are all derived from the same ancestor.
