Saving Honey Bees: Dragonfly Figurine vs. Giant Hornets

In this video, we conduct an intriguing experiment to see if a dragonfly figurine can save honey bees from the relentless attacks of giant hornets. The golden-ringed dragonfly is a formidable predator in Japan, and we’ve modeled a figurine after it to test its effectiveness as a decoy. Watch as we place the figurine near a struggling colony of Japanese honey bees and observe the hornets’ reactions.
