Deep Look's Newest Episode
Deep Look: Yellowjackets Roll Tiny Meatballs For The Babies | Why is that yellowjacket crashing your BBQ? Well, she wants what you’re having: burgers, hot dogs, fish and turkey. But she doesn’t eat them herself. Her nest’s larvae need that protein to develop. So she carves up your dinner and makes teeny-tiny meatballs for them. | |
