Why are Africanized honeybees more dangerous than European honeybees? What will be an ideal response?
While both types of bees can sting, and both bees produce the same venom, it is in their behavior that
Africanized honeybees are more dangerous. Africanized honeybees will sting with less provocation,
and Africanized honeybees produce pheromones that make them more likely to attack as a group.
