Getting up close and personal with a live murder hornet isn’t something many of us would rush to do 😲

However, we’re not insect enthusiast Ebira Mosura who decided to remove a living parasite from one of the hornets with some tweezers 👇

Murder hornets, in case you weren’t aware, aren’t to be trifled with.

They can grow as large as two-and-a-half inches long and are capable of delivering multiple stings, each carrying toxic venom.

Which, in some cases, can be fatal 😶 Image
Still, Mosura noticed one particular hornet in his home city of Tokyo was acting a bit strangely.

So naturally he caught the insect and brought it inside to ‘rescue’ it.
