Wasps Find One Way to Support Humans
This article is about Australian female wasps being able to paralyze a poisonous spider, the red back spider.  The female wasp drags the spider to a burrow and lays an egg on it, and then the larva has something to feed on when they’re born. The article describes that the study on wasps have been ignored completely. Just recently have scientist in Australia became interested in spider-hunting wasps. Little did they know in Australia it is more wasp-hunting spiders and wasps are keeping the poisonous spiders at low numbers.
