That is by far one of the most bizarre methods of destroying an intruder that I have ever seen.

wow.....thats amazing

go go honey bee's

that is what i call getting clapped up in Compton LOOOL

haha i was sooo waiting for like the hornet to hit a trip wire and get sprayed with fire haha but that is neat.

Oh, that kind of hornet? I completely misread the title- I thought 'Bees' was the name of a football team and Hornet was a name like- Miss Hornet.
Nevermind...

i wonder how long and exactly how it took those bees to evolve that method of defense. mabye the bees would shake as a reaction to being scared or threatned and after time learned what tempeture to raise to without killing themselves.?

Japanese hornets wreak havoc on Europen Honeybees, so japanese honeybees have evolved this defense strategy.

30 hornets can kill 30,000 european honeybees.

This is one of the reasons I like UM, you learn all the good stuff that they'd never teach you in school. Awesome video.

Now that's some smart bee's.
