An accidental fatal attack on domestic pigeons by honey bees in Bangladesh
Fatalities among avian species due to multiple bee stings are rare. Sixteen pigeons on a farm in Bangladesh each suffered multiple bee stings. Ten of the pigeons died before treatment, 5 (4-11 stings) died within 12 hr after treatment, and 1 pigeon (only 3 stings) survived.

متن کاملThe death of honey bees and environmental pollution by pesticides: the honey bees as biological indicators

In fact, because of its morphological and ethological features...
متن کاملMass envenomations by honey bees and wasps.
Stinging events involving honey bees and wasps are rare; most deaths or clinically important incidents involve very few stings (< 10) and anaphylactic shock.
