Hornets Vs Wasps

Occurred on June 9, 2005 / Dohr, Eifel-Mountains, Germany

Info from Licensor: "All my life I have dealt with animals, which finally led to my passion as a nature filmmaker and nature photographer. I know the behavior of the animals, how and where they live. During the last summer I dealt extensively with the cinematic documentation of the social wasps. The pictures were taken in my own garden in the Eifel in Germany. I was able to capture many interesting behaviors in the video: hornets hunt wasps to feed their brood. Yellow jackets and paper wasp fight each other. The animals in the body care and in slow motion in daring flight maneuvers. Like all other species, they function in the most complex ecosystems and are important links in a fabric of hundreds of thousands of species and dependencies. While we believe that we need to regulate it aggressively, we have consistently and consistently demonstrated that we are not capable of understanding these nested systems."
