Inside the Killer Hornet's hive lies an extraordinary, alien-like world, one controlled by the unassuming grub. The hornets rely on these larvae for sustenance. Their regurgitated fluid is rich in sugars, fats, and proteins, an elixir that fuels the adults and helps them grow stronger, fly farther, and live longer. This dynamic gives the grubs unexpected influence over the entire colony. Watch Asia’s Killer Hornets Sunday 7th September at 8pm on National Geographic WILD UK | National Geographic
