In class with Miss Williamson today, we tried to figure out something. WHY do bees sting?? Well, we went onto Wonderopolis, and found out the answer. Bees sting to protect themselves or their hive. But there is a down side for the bees when they sting. When they sting, most of the time other parts of their body go with it. Imagine half a bee in your skin! In most cases when that happens, the bee has sustained a massive injury, so it dies shortly after. Another thing i found out was, what is the name of the venom they inject with the barbed stinger? Apitoxin. The stinger injects it into the host for about ten minutes or until it is removed.
