Who Are The Bee Trolls?

Who is an Internet troll - everyone knows. But do you know that bees also have trolls?

All bees in the hive perform their job. Some bring water, some bring pollens and nectar, and some feeds the baby. After leaving the hive cell, the bee temporarily cannot fly, and performs work inside the hive. Then, when she is able to fly, she switches to another job, outside the hive. The more the bee works, the faster it wears out. Some bees die, never reaching home. And some "live out their lives" doing lighter work, for example, carry water in a hive. When the forces of bees are not enough even for this, they begin to "troll" :) Their beekeepers call such bees "old bees".

What their trolling consists of ?

Most often, these bees do not fly far away from the hive, and troll those who are nearby. As a rule, these are beekeepers themselves. The old-bee flies to the beekeeper (or someone else who is close to her, busy with their own affairs) and begins to circling and buzzing nearby. Its goal is to provoke the victim for some actions, which she will gladly perceive as "a threat to her life and the security of her home," and she will take revenge with a clear conscience, stinging the victim, and as a result she will perish.

But if you do not pay attention to the old bee, it will fly for a long time around the victim, hanging before your eyes, provoking the victim to make a long-awaited swing by hand. She herself will not attack first, she needs the slightest reason.

If she does not get a reason to attack, she will get tired and disappear for a while. The old bee simply flies to the hive to refresh (other bees try to wear nectar in the hive, but she uses it for useless objectives :D. And then she returns to the victim and repeats the cycle. Sometimes you just cannot stand it and slam this bee, so that she will not suffer herself and not torment others.

Very similar behavior of old bees in Internet, right? :)
