Projection
Many insects mimic wasps and bees. One insect that looks like a wasp without wings, and has a hairy-looking body with a red or orange stripe is the "velvet ant." This is actually a wingless female wasp with a painful sting.
When they feel they are being threatened or attacked, they will sting you. For instance, if you are too close to their hive, they might sting you because they feel you are a threat to their hive. Wasps sting as a self defense for themselves and their colony.
