Foragers travel to flowers to collect food, including nectar and pollen, which the colony uses to make honey. Foragers can travel farther than some related bees, though most stay within 400 metres of the nest.1

This bee is known for aggressive defensive behaviour and vicious attacks when disturbed. Workers also attack bees from other colonies, so it is wise to keep well away from nests.1

Senzani uma sesabile?

When disturbed, colonies defend their nest aggressively, and they attack intruders from other colonies.1

Uma sihlaba

Khipha udosi lwenyosi ngokulukhuhla bese upholisa indawo.
Uma umuntu ephefumula kanzima, ebuso noma emphinjeni kuvuvukala, noma ezizwa ezoquleka, lesi yisimo esiphuthumayo se-allergy: shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo futhi usebenzise ipeni lakhe le-adrenaline uma enalo.

Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala

Hlala uphephile

Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Uma sikuhlaba: hlala uzolile, ungashukumi, shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911) noma uye esibhedlela ngokushesha. Khumbula ukuthi besibukeka kanjani, isithombe siyasiza.

Asikuzingeli wena. Sisebenzisa ubuthi baso ukuze sibambe ukudla noma ukuzivikela, futhi singancamela ukucasha. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile

Amaqiniso

Unlike most honey bees, this species forages at night, and it is the only bee of its genus known to do so.1

The queen mates with many drones, and the Himalayan subspecies has the highest levels of polyandry of any social insect.1

Each colony can have up to 100,000 bees, and colonies are only a few centimetres apart in large groups.1

Colonies migrate between nesting sites with the seasons, usually staying about 3 to 4 months at each site.1

Bees use a waggle dance to show other bees the distance, direction and value of a food source.1

Indigenous peoples have traditionally harvested the honey and beeswax of this bee, a practice known as honey hunting.1
