Hornet Vs Mantis
I was out on my bike when I got this shot. Luckily I was out to shoot some insects, so I had a macro lens on me. I watched as the hornet chewed through the mantis's neck and flew off with the head! --- by www.kasei.co.uk

This is a Giant Hornet, Vespa mandarinia, one of the largest wasps in the world. |
