Summary
An overturned truck in Washington state released an estimated 250 million bees, prompting authorities to warn the public to avoid the area due to potential swarming. Emergency officials, alongside master bee-keepers, worked to rescue the bees from the truck, which was transporting approximately 70,000 lb of active honey bee hives. The Whatcom County Sheriff’s Office reported that efforts were underway to help the bees re-hive and locate their queen, with expectations that most would return to their hives within 24-48 hours.
