All bees are capable of stinging except for drones. Drones are male bees that do not have a stinger. Their only purpose is to mate with a queen bee. Once the summer mating season is over, the drones are killed.

∙ 11y agoNo, of course not! A Hummingbird's beak may be long and intimidating, but it is not built to pierce flesh and/or inject venom.
But, there have been cases when a hummingbird has a territorial stand off with another and they have stabbed with their long, pointy beaks. But, in these cases, they will usually both get stuck and die.
