Best Answer

The fur over most of the bear's body is too thick for a bee's sting to penetrate it. However the bees can sting the bear's face and the bees will often try to go for the eyes.

After an encounter with bees, bears have often been seen with swollen faces, especially around the eyes.

Mostly on the face. The bears fur is too thick on the rest of its body for a bee to sting it.

No, but bears are covered in such thick fur it is rare for them to get stung other than on their face, where the fur is thin.

Possibly because they like honey and a hungry bear will do almost anything to get their food
