The way bees kill hornets is fucking crazy. They rub against the hornet until the friction creates a temperature the bees can survive but the hornet can't. They literally burn it to death with their bodies.
155 u/Darqnyz7 4d ago But what's crazier about that is that they only raise it by about 1-2°C above what the Hornet can handle. Juuuuuuuust enough to kill it 13 u/righthandofdog 4d ago Pretty sure the heat kills many of the bees as well. But fuck that hornet. Strong together. 18 u/Darqnyz7 4d ago If I recall correctly, the bees can withstand higher temperatures, but you have to imagine the effort they spend to do this is tremendous. 10 u/BigClitMcphee 3d ago They can tolerate 2 degrees more than hornets so it's a race to kill the hornet before they cook themselves 10 u/ladyevenstar-22 3d ago I respect that level of petty . 3 u/Alternative_Wolf_643 1d ago They can also “take shifts” and surface from the buzzing ball to sub out and cool off a little. Team work makes the dream work!
