      When people mistake hornets for the Germanic common wasp.
      No seriously, people do often mistake them, due to the roundness and similarities. Though more like a fatter European Paper Wasp really. But they're pretty docile. It's the common fucks that sting without provocation, just because you "were in it's way". Have literally ran into a flying Hornet by accident, where we both turned around straight after as if to say "sorry".

      As said, unless the bee leaves the barb; at which point pulls their intestines out. Which they don't do after being smoked.
      I'm not experienced at retrieving swarming bees; definitely not a case like this. Mom did have a hive swarm ony a few feet away on a low branch.
      Inspection reveals when they are producing drones & potential new queen, these will be found on edge of brood chamber. Add new brood super. Bee experts put in queen barrier. But, older bees that take care of the queen refuse to use the outer 2-3 frames of intended (by persons). Move honey super to below queen barrier for winter. Then cover to avoid wood rot.

    • @mastermindhunter
      @mastermindhunter 5 років тому +41

      Exactly. They’re also barbed, and those barbs are what hooks it against our flesh. Since most bee threats are other insects, their stingers won’t get sunk into a hard exoskeleton, and it wouldn’t be as fatal.

    • @SuperSpells
      @SuperSpells 5 років тому +29

      Yeah, they specifically stick into our skin/mammal skin, because it's elastic and soft, hence why the grew barbs for bears. Only the Queen doesn't have barbs. They can sting other insects repeatedly and kill them no problem. The sack of flesh they leave behind specifically is the venom gland and the muscles to pump it, along with their intestines, but they fatally injure themselves in the process of leaving that behind.

    Such beautiful comb. For the detractors below, these bees would be decimated by the destruction of the building so for the bees it is a survival event. The beekeeper remarked that in the tropics they have natural feed all year and this honey is overproduction for the hive needs. This beautifully productive, healthy hive will live to regenerate and at the end of the day that is the most important aspect of this removal. Happy New Year to all.

      In all reality the Bees actually need to be fed in order to start producing a new hive. It is also the best way to feed them until they can become acclimated to there new hive. When you do a hive split because you found a swarm brood (basically you notice a new queen bee egg) and you want to prevent a swarm. You will take a good portion of the old hive's cone to implant into the new hive to give them some larva eggs as well as food to aid in growth.

    My answer to "why did bees evolve to die when they sting you" would be multifaceted. I haven't researched any of this but I thought it might be fun to just guess.
    Firstly, the stinger likely formed originally from some bit of carapace material, or even an orifice or vestigial organ, which caused it to be attached to other vulnerable innards in a way that isn't easily or safely severed.
    Second, evolution doesn't have an end goal in mind. Nothing in nature or in the bee thinks "it would be better if losing the stinger didn't kill us, let's work towards that." Evolution is blind and is very rarely a perfectionist. The stinger characteristic only stuck around because it provided an advantage over what was there before and the bees who had it were able to more successfully pass on their genetic makeup and/or outcompete. It's possible that eventually, with a lot more time, even better defense mechanism woul evolve over millions of generations or more. But for now, even though it kills the bee, as far as evolution is concerned, the trait works good enough.
    Lastly, again evolution is most often a very slow process of feeling around in the dark, and making small bits of progress through trial and error. For the stinger not to kill the bee, it would mean the bee has something to do after it stings once. Probably the most reasonable approach would be the stinger just doesn't fall out, since it would require a reshaping of the stinger and significant strengthening of the carapace. Not too much to handle there. Another solution might be that the bee loses the stinger but it doesn't die. In that case, it can't contribute to the hive nearly as well without it's main defense weaponry. It would ideally either regrow its stinger, or maybe develop a new job for the hive. In both cases, it's possible that it's just not worth the resources to the hive when you can just grow all new offspring. Also, both of these would be massive undertakings for evolution. Changing a part of one trait is one thing, creating an entirely new one is another. Many ants, for example, have different morphs for different jobs. Some have even separate workers and fighters, where the fighters are massive with huge mandibles and the workers are much smaller. Again though, this would fundamentally change the nature of the beehive's operation and logistics. Even I have a problem seeing any of this happening since again evolution cares about what works, and only refines a creature when there is a reason to in the environment.
    TLDR: Bees don't survive when they lose their stingers because they don't need to.

      @fallenstar780 3 роки тому +1

      I've done lots of research on bees (although im not retaining all of it this instant)!
      From what i can recall, worker stingers are a modified ovipositor (not sure about queen stingers since they still have their ovipositor im p sure). This means that its still attached pretty solidly to their insides.
      Their stingers arent actually supposed to come out, though! They were designed for killing other arthropods, in which case the stinging bee would be unharmed (young queens kill each other when the hive needs to raise a new one). However, we mammals have thick skin, and when the stingers slide in, they get stuck. Thats why that bee there was struggling to get away- it probably doesmt even know (as much as a bee *can* know at least) that itll die.
      But youre right about why its lasted; there was never a pressure to lose the trait, since the hive can crank out more bees easily. Plus those workers arent the ones reproducing (the drones just leave, idk if they even have stingers since theyre male and wouldnt have had ovipositors to begin with), so their natural selection is a bit different.

    • @Doxymeister
      @Doxymeister 3 роки тому

      @@fallenstar780 Just an addendum: the drones will hang around the hive as long as the workers let them--they're otherwise useless--all they do is eat, and they don't forage or build comb. UNTIL...not entirely sure how they know, but when a young queen from another hive goes out on her mating flight, the drones will swarm out of the hives in the immediate area, gathering in "drone assemblages" to get a chance at mating with a virgin queen. Also, during the mating flight of the queen, many males will mate with her, in which process the male loses it's "stinger" and dies just like a worker that stings will. An older queen, or a queen that was incompletely fertilized might begin to lay unfertilized eggs, which then develop into lots and lots of drones. Beekeepers will usually destroy an old queen, incompletely mated or even virgin queens that just start laying willy-nilly, because too many drones will cause the hive to die out--no new worker bees are being born.

    For the most part, I liked this video. However, I would have liked to see the removal of the rest of this hive. You slowed the video down, and paused in some areas for much longer than necessary, but I definitely would rather have had more footage of the comb removal instead. I also think you would have saved more bees if you had vacuumed the bees off the comb as you were removing it. Another thing I would've liked to see at least a bit of is you framing up the comb for the hive, so we could also see them in the box they'll be living in now. I think it's neat to see the framing of the comb. Other than that, it was a good video. You sure got a lot of honey out of the hive. It was massive, and the comb was so thick. Good video, even if it was a bit incomplete. 👍

I highly recommend going to your local farmer’s market to buy fresh honeycomb. It’s a great add-on for desserts, ice creams, cheese boards, and fruit plates!!

    Every time I watch one of these videos, it never ceases to amaze me that GOD created this little insect to produce this rich liquid that can sustain life and is so recyclable. Honey bees are amazing.

      If god created the bees he also created the cancer. How convenient to only pick the good side of the story huh.
