Giant killer hornets plaguing China

There have been several incidents recently of people in China being attacked by swarms of Asian giant hornets. Each hornet is several inches long, and about the size and shape of half a hot dog. They attack in swarms, and 21 people have died this year in one Chinese province alone. Some experts believe that global warming will facilitate the spread of these enormous and terrifying wasps. Eek.
