Looks like any other common fly, but its speed is incredible. Harvard University researcher James Carpenter has been researching this fly for a long time.
According to him, they can fly so fast because of their powerful wings and aerodynamic body structure. Its wings reduce wind resistance and move forward easily through the air while flying.
According to researchers, the horse fly's speed is due to its ability to catch prey. They are usually more active in summer and bite humans and animals.
