Yeah sure "murder hornets". Like "murder japs", "murder communists", "murder vietnamese", "murder gays", "murder blacks" or "murder arabs" before. I think I'll hold off celebrating until I know how much oil those hornets had in stock.
Now you gotta send help to Australia. Those damned emus are a worthy adversary.
Would have been solved much quicker if they where ceo killing hornets
LMAO. Its sad that this is so funny because its true.
finally some good fucking food...
Anybody know where i can get some murder hornets from? (i jest, ofc)
shitposting aside, how rare is it that invasive species are eradicated before becoming a problem? Can't be that common.
Never. Cause the definition of "Invasive species" includes it being a problem. Otherwise they're called "Introduced species".
Yeah they are probably lying. They can not know with 100% certainty that these giant asian hornets have all been eradicated in the us. They couldn't get rid of something as benign as the spotted lantern fly or the marmorated stink bug but sure lets believe they got rid of a hornet as big as a humming bird that has facial recognition capabilities and can unalive people with a swarm no larger than 50 to 100 of the fuckers
(camera focuses on the news playing on a TV in a home in the countryside, slowly pulling back away from the monitor)
"...thanks to their efforts, experts have now stated with certainty that this threat has been eradicated..."
(the camera has pulled back enough that the screen is framed by an outside window with a tree trunk coming into frame from the right)
"...and many communities in the northwest united states can breathe easier knowing that these dreaded hornets are no longer found on our shores. Reporting from Seattle..."
(focus shifts to the tree bark. Buzzing is heard, getting louder and louder until a single murder hornet queen lands on the tree. Cut to black. Roll credits)
Coming Soon...

IS THAT RFK WITH A FOLDING CHAIR?!
Honestly I wouldn't be surprised if RFK Jr. Came out in favor of murder hornets
He needs more carcasses for his falcon
Small pox won't be checked for long.
Declared extinct in the wild by the WHO in 1980.
What does Pete Townshend have to do with any of this?
RFK will probably support reintroduction, so....
Hey hey, the US actually won a war! Been a long time coming..

“Somehow, the murder hornets have returned.”
They really didn't go with homicidal hornets? We actin' like fun alliterations just come around all the time now?
