The only stinging insect that loses it stinger when it stings is the honey bee worker. So, no, the hornet does not lose its stinger.

Do bumble bees leave their stingers?

Yes it does have a stinger but it does not lose it when it stings you. It is a hornet and since it doesn't lose its stinger when it stings you it can sting you over and over again. I have ran over a hornet nest entrance and they attacked with full force and didn't let up until a minute or so later. I ran flinging my arms and smacking them but it didn't do much of anything at all and it hurts for hours unlike wasps that don't lose their stingers either.

Can you describe a bee stinger?

A bee stinger is a sharp, needle-like structure located at the end of a bee's abdomen. It is used to inject venom into the skin of its target. When a bee stings, the stinger detaches from the bee's body, causing the bee to die shortly after.
