🐝European hornet
Bålgeting (Vespa crabro) är den största samhällsbyggande getingen i Europa. Den bygger sitt bo främst i ihåliga ekar och andra lövträd, men kan också bo i människors byggnader. Den äter större och mindre insekter och tillfredsställer sitt sockerbehov främst genom att dricka sav från lövträd.
