The largest wasp in the United States the Tarantula Hawk Wasp feeds on nectar, but procreate in a particularly morbid fashion. When a female is ready to lay her eggs, she seeks out a tarantula and injects it with paralyzing venom. She drags the tarantula to a burrow and stuffs it down the hole, then lays her eggs on top of the paralyzed spider. Several days later the eggs hatch and the larvae feed on the still living tarantula.
