🔴Asian Giant Murder Hornet Renamed Over Racism Concerns
“The Entomological Society of America (ESA) has renamed the Asian giant hornet — known to most as the murder hornet — amid concerns of stoking anti-Asian sentiment and discrimination.
The invasive species will now be known as the northern giant hornet, with the ESA saying that the current political climate was a factor in its decision to move forward with the rebrand.”

Good Grief--what's next (and there WILL be a "next" with these types of people)--the JAPANESE Beetle; the "Lady"bug; the "Monarch" butterfly; the "European" Viper/snake; so many already recognized and NAMED plants/animals/insects/PEOPLE
Give me a BREAK from the LOONS
