Thread: 20,000 bees chase car for two days after queen bee gets trapped in boot

A queen bee got trapped in the back of a 4×4 – so her dedicated hive chased the vehicle for TWO DAYS!
48 hours of bee-related nightmare.
The swarm of around 20,000 sparked chaos when their queen got stuck in a car boot.



However it took five different beekeepers, park rangers and passers-by to coax them off into a cardboard box, only for the wind to blow it off the car and the queen go back to the silver Mitsubishi Outlander’s boot.
Roger Burns of Pembrokeshire Beekeepers then says the car’s owner returned and drove away with the queen unknowingly trapped in the back, resulting in the swarm taking up the chase – even being spotted on the car’s boot the next day.
