apopapo··on Why do bees die when they sting you? (2021)
This entire article is flawed in my opinion. Bees are not "suicidal". They are not meant to die after they sting. It's just that they have not adapted to stinging mammals with elastic skin (and probably will not). Bees can absolutely live after stinging if they manage to dislodge the stinger from the skin.
