Wasps are nature’s apex chemists, architects, detectives, builders, engineers and craft artists. They confounded Darwin, and they perfected evolution. Wasps discovered and used antibiotics 70 million years before humans. They are model parents and are thought to be the biological source of altruism. Some wasps can recognize individual faces, and their social behaviors are disturbingly similar to ours. Wasps have inspired space and horror movie plots, but their own tiny lives are much stranger and more interesting than fiction.
