News article from California
« on: February 13, 2014, 01:56:26 pm »
Nothing like another article to keep killer bees in the news. I really didn't like some parts of this. I got the idea that pretty much every feral hive should now be considered guilty before proven innocent.  >:(

That's the way it is.

All guns are loaded until proven empty.

All snakes are venomous until proven safe.

All dogs are aggressive until proven friendly.

All bees are African until proven European.

add to Iddee's list
All bees that are being kept are from captured feral swarms that are African not purchased with a bred European queen.
