Texas Governor to Announce ‘Murder Hornet’ Task Force
This is about to happen in Texas.
ABC News reports that Texas Governor Greg Abbott has announced plans to put together a task force to battle the "Murder Hornets."
According to the report, the task force will be led by Texas A&M AgriLife experts to protect honey bees. If you aren't aware, the honey bee population has decreased drastically in recent years and it has many concerned.
The hornets are much larger than the average bee and their string is a lot more painful than any other bee or wasp.
So, with all of that said, is it worth putting together a task force for this newest "threat?" You can let me know in the comment section below.
