Wasp

A wasp is a breed of flying, stinging insect. Wasps prey on other insects as a means of keeping their populations in check.

Background
Wasps are either solitary or social creatures. Social wasps: form large colonies in a hive, where the queen and her mate are the only breeding partners in the nest. All other wasps are sterile females.

Solitary wasps: are lone hunters. Most solitary wasps are parasitic creatures, laying their eggs inside the often still-living bodies of their victims. These eggs gestate in the bodies of the unlucky creature and then the immature wasp eats its way free from its nest.
