Anyone seen the YouTube vid “bees perform a miracle to save the queen”
Not quite Neo saving Trinity but I have seen apparently dead wildlife or at least creatures I had concluded needed putting out of there misery apparently make remarkable recovery's it’s 11 min of entertainment and with what I would love to be true at about 8 min in

I think I read an article by (I think) Roger Patterson talking about goats fainting and queen bees fainting, when they get scared.... the way that poor queen was being stabbed by that marker, he probably knocked her out!

Ok the bees didn’t save her, when marking or handling them the odd 1 will play possum. Just pop them back on a frame and wait a minute or two.

Just seems a pity that it's the clueless that seem most keen to show off their ignorance to the rest of the world

Plus the amount of properly funded research and queen breeding done far surpasses anything we will ever get close to.

Not to mention the largest queen rearers in the Free World. (The Chinese may have more but no data)
