I do find it weird that in a species where some of them have stingers, the ones in charge of defense are not in that group.
I think its more the first line of defense, they are not there to kill, they are there to basically state I don’t want you here without provoking a lethal response from whoever is encroaching on them. It causes a lot less death of their males since they are known that they are not a threat, reducing the overall attrition of them over time and making life easier on the hive. The females with the stingers come out if something is a real threat, ie something messes with the hive or queen.
Honestly, kinda reminds me of British (and other non-militarized) police. Don’t send guns to every problem as most can be solved without it and some are made worse by their presence.
Carpenter bees are mostly solitary.
That would explain their reluctance to do suicide attacks when protecting themselves.
As we go into battle, may you have the courage of a 1,000 male carpenter bees! But oh! For all we stand for: please have more than their intelligence.
They’re my favorite, watching two carpenter bees battle over my flowers is hilarious and epic
No wonder they are bald, headbutting everything everyday.
I mean if I did not know it was stingless I would still be scared shitless if a handful of them headbutted me. I might even psychologically convince myself that I was feeling stinging pain.
What’s the problem of just hamming into you at full speed?
When this one does it, nobody laughs.
Well that’s not a bee, you see
Hah, I have one that likes to just float in front of my shed for some bizarre reason, I always try to avoid it for concern that it could sting but knowing this I may just ignore it now lol, ty
If you love them that much, come and take them off my trees
