A killer-bee sting is no more deadly than a regular bee sting. All honeybees have venom in their stingers.

In many ways, killer bees also behave like regular honeybees. All bees attack when they think their hive is in danger. To a bee, any sound or sudden motion can signal danger — like a bear or hyena out to steal honey.
