Hi,
Can you please tell me what this is, and please tell me it isn’t dangerous?

Ichneumon, we believe
Dear J25,
We believe this is an Ichneumon, but we would not eliminate the possibility that it might be the other family within Ichneumonoidea, Braconidae. In a quick and unsuccessful attempt to identify it, we searched BugGuide, but a more thorough search will take much more time than we have right now. We suspect this Ichneumon is the victim of Unnecessary Carnage.
Thanks! So from what I read about the two possibilities below – not dangerous to humans….
That’s what I really needed to know.
I appreciate your help greatly!
Joseph
