A honeybee’s stinger is made of two barbed lancets. When the bee stings, it can’t pull the stinger back out. It leaves behind not only the stinger but also part of its digestive tract, plus muscles and nerves. This massive abdominal rupture is what kills the bee.

this is why honeybees are so fuckin dumb

what kind of defensive mechanism is this oh my god like i understand it in the sense of defending the hive or whatever but like on a singular scale what good is it??

“ow you almost squished me!! i’m still alive but i’m going to voluntarily de-bowel myself just to teach you a lesson. maybe you’ll think twice about being barefoot. god save the queen.”
