Why do stingers fall off bees?

When bees sting, their stingers get trapped inside the skin because there are barbs sticking out that snags the skin. The bee will try to get away soon after, and since the stinger and bee are going opposite ways it rips. This injury is fatal and the bee dies withing several minutes. Wasps do not die when they sting; they just fly away.


Do bees bite?

No bees do not bite. They sting. Honey bees have barbed stingers and if they sting a person or animal the barbs in their stinger will stick. When they fly away their rear end is torn off and they die. Bees can sting other insects multiple times and their stinger won't stick because insect flesh is pulpy. Bumble bees (the large fuzzy bee) does not have a barbed stinger. However this particular bee has a very docile personality and is more likely to fly away than sting. Honey bees and bumble bees only eat pollen and nectar from flowers. Bees, Wasps and Hornets do have mouth parts called mandibles which they use for scraping, chewing food and building combs. Wasps and hornets can sting as well. Their stingers are not barbed and they can sting multiple times. These insects are omnivores - they eat all foods. Yellow jackets are very commonly seen when eating food outdoors. They enjoy sugary pop, hot dogs, tuna sandwiches, etc. Yellow jacket wasps tend to become more aggressive in the fall when their food supply is dwindling and they are hungry. Wasps and hornets will eat other insects, and can use their mouth parts to cut up the dead insect in pieces that they carry back to their hive to feed their young.

How do bees help bears?

Bees help bears primarily by pollinating plants that produce fruits and nuts, which are important food sources for bears. When bees pollinate flowering plants, they contribute to the growth of berries, such as blueberries and blackberries, that bears rely on for sustenance, especially during the late summer and fall. Additionally, the health of ecosystems supported by bees indirectly benefits bears by maintaining the habitats they inhabit. Thus, the relationship between bees and plants plays a crucial role in the food chain that supports bears.
