Chapter 198

The bees were so small that they were covered in pollen.

"Is this a bee?"

"It looks like a seven-spotted ladybug!"

"I just slapped a mosquito to death, and after comparing, I found that these bees are even smaller than mosquitoes!"

"Is it the mosquito that cheated or the bee that cheated!"

The audience in the live broadcast room became more and more confused.

"These bees that are smaller than mosquitoes are called stingless bees!"

Jiangnan pointed to a group of small bees standing on his arm and said, "Look carefully at their legs, they are still covered with pollen."

"Just like their name, the biggest difference between them and other bees is that they don't have stingers, so they won't sting people!"

As he spoke, more and more bees climbed onto Jiangnan's body.

From a distance, Jiangnan, surrounded by bees, seemed to be wearing a black coat.

If a patient with trypophobia sees this scene, he will be scared to death.

As if to verify that these stingless bees are not philosophers, Jiangnan deliberately shook his hands so that the audience can see more clearly.

"Strange! If there is no stinger, how can they protect themselves and the hive?"

"For bees, stingers are their weapons. If they don't even have weapons, won't they be slaughtered?"

"There are many animals in the wild who like to eat honey. If they find the hive of stingless bees, won't the stingless bees face a catastrophe?"

"God will open a window when he closes a door, so where is the window of the stingless bees?"

The audience in the live broadcast room became more and more confused.

"Blind student, you found a bright spot!"

Jiangnan smiled and began to popularize science: "Stingless bees do not have stingers, but they are small, and the hives they build are also small. If it weren't for the honeyguide leading the way today, I'm afraid that the black bear mother and I would never have found them in this lifetime."

After speaking, Jiangnan zoomed in again.

This time, it was no longer aimed at stingless bees, but at the bark.

I saw a water stain slowly flowing down from the dark bark, extending all the way to the ground.

These sticky water stains are honey!

Jiangnan patted the bark gently and said, "Because they are too small, the stingless bees and their nests are very hidden."

"As you can see, this group of stingless bees have built many nests in the bark on the left side of this big tree."

"That is to say, they have lived here for many years without being discovered by nearby animals."

"If there were not too many nests, the honey would have flowed out and attracted the attention of the honeyguide, I am afraid they could have stayed here for several more years."

"Even top honeycomb hunters like the honeyguide rely on accidental flow. Only by looking for the honey from the stingless bee nest can you find the stingless bee nest, and other animals can't find it. "

"In addition, God really opened windows for stingless bees, and he opened four windows at a time!"

"First, stingless bees will release a poisonous gas when their lives are threatened."

"This poisonous gas is very unpleasant. It can not only block the enemy's sight, but also affect the enemy's sense of smell, thus playing a deterrent role."

"Second, stingless bees will also secrete a corrosive liquid."

"This liquid is highly lethal. Generally, mosquitoes, flies, ladybugs, etc. Once these small insects are touched, they will surely die, and stingless bees can secrete this venom over a large area. "

"Third, the mandibles of stingless bees are very developed, several times that of ordinary bees."

"And there are serrations on the mandibles, which directly leads to their strong biting ability."

"Even some large animals, even the fur of a bear, they can easily bite it!"

"Fourth, stingless bees not only collect honey, but also collect glue, which is an ability that other bees do not have."

"On the hind legs of stingless bees, there are cans that can store honey. The structure of propolis, so stingless bees always have propolis stored on their hind legs at any time. "

"This propolis has excellent stickiness. When encountering an enemy, they will use this high-viscosity propolis to stick to the attacker, making the attacker unable to move, and then use their powerful jaws to bite. "

"To sum up, propolis is a mage, and the jaws are shooters. When the mage controls, the shooter can easily output. "

"These four abilities will not threaten the life of stingless bees, and bees with stings will inevitably die after stinging people. "

"Because the sting of the bee is

It is connected to the internal organs, and the stinger has a barb. "

"If a bee stings a person or other animal, these barbs will get stuck in the human skin, the bee's tail will be broken, and even part of the internal organs will be pulled out."

"Ordinary bees that sting people basically cannot survive, but stingless bees do not have such a structure, which also means that the mortality rate of stingless bees after defense or attack is much lower than that of ordinary bees."

The audience in the live broadcast room was stunned.

They did not expect that such a tiny bee could have so many functions.

Compared with these bees, they feel like a waste.

"Since these bees have so many abilities, why don't they attack the island owner?"

"Island owner: It's better not to attack me. Are you eager for me to see the King of Hell?"

"I have a question. If the honey in these beehives is taken out, will the stingless bees be homeless? ”

“I suddenly remembered a classic saying: In the eyes of humans, there are only two kinds of bees in the world, one is the killer bee in the wild, and the other is the good bee that knows how to collect honey.”

Jiangnan glanced at the barrage, and continued to dig out honey, saying: “Stingless bees will only attack when their lives are threatened. They are generally very kind. Even if their honey is taken out, they will not go crazy, they are just anxious, so they have not attacked me until now.”

“Secondly, the honeycomb of the stingless bees here has overflowed with honey, and I believe that other animals will be attracted soon.”

“In order to save this group of stingless bees, all the honey must be taken out! Otherwise, when other honey-hunting animals come to eat, and these animals are much more ferocious and cruel than me, they may bite these tiny stingless bees to death! ”

“And you don’t have to worry about stingless bees being homeless, because stingless bees have very strong gregariousness. Even if they lose their hives, they will not scatter in a mess. Instead, they will move together and find a more hidden place to build a hive. ”

“Finally, I would like to add that because stingless bees are relatively friendly, they have begun to be artificially bred in China, especially in Xishuangbanna. ”

“Stingless bees are small and flexible, and can go deeper into the flower tubes to collect nectar, fully pollinating crops, fruit trees and Chinese medicinal materials, and the effect is better than other ordinary bees. ”

“A typical one-inch long, one-inch strong!”
