Thousands of bees dead, and lot of bees dying in this slaughter in the beehive. The scenes of this National Geographic video are horrifying, but amazingly fascinating as well.
The video “Hornets from hell” represents hornets (lat. Vespa Velutina) attacking European honeybees because they want to get to their larvae.
The honeybees have never been around this kind of hornets, so they do not have defense mechanism against them. Unlike them, Asian honeybees
, for example, have learned how to defend themselves. They surround the scout hornet, flap their wings, eventually causing the overheating and dying of the intruder.Source: Daily Mail
