why do bees have strips?In nature, bright colors usually indicate danger to potential predators. The bright colors advertise that the animal may be dangerous to eat or contains venom. Alternating a bright color with a dark one as in bands on a bee or snake, makes the colors seem brighter by having something to contrast.

So there i hope that answers your question THANK YOU
