Stung By a Wild Velvet Ant (Cow Killer)!!!

With a nickname like “Cow Killer,” you’d expect this insect to be dangerously venomous, right? Well, not quite. In this video, I go on the search to find a wild Eastern Velvet Ant (Dasymutilla occidentalis) to shed light on this fascinating wasp species, as well as deliver a sting to myself to show that this insect needs not to be feared!
