Death Bee Cums Them

Hmmm. Odd story.

And, of course, it’s GLOBAL WARMING!!!

Heat wave caused bees to ejaculate to death. Could Styrofoam ‘protection’ help?

Bees can’t sweat. So when a record-breaking heat wave hit in late June 2021, drones fled their colonies in search of water — some descending on the burlap sack-covered kiddie pools dotting Emily Huxter’s Armstrong, B.C., farm.

At over 200 beats per second, the bees’ wings would have helped cool their tiny bodies as they desperately lugged water back to their colonies. Somewhere along the way, an untold number didn’t make it. 

That morning, Huxter went out into her yard to check on her petite livestock. Dead drones everywhere, she remembers. In the grips of heat stress, their sex organs had exploded out of their bodies. The bees had ejaculated to death.

“It was unbelievable,” said Huxter, recounting the scene. “They have got all of their man parts out.”

Huxter called two beekeeping family members, who confirmed they were finding the same dead drones in awkward death poses.

Then she checked on roughly 300 starter hives where she rears queens, each worth hundreds of dollars. About 70 per cent were dead or missing.

“We had incredible losses. It was really scary,” she said. “Then we were like, ‘Oh my gosh, what’s happening?’”

  1. They die after mating. It’s their only job. These people are crazy. If they’re dying from anything, they’re dying from the chemicals that the gov’t is spraying into the air.
