Is it Cruel to Use Bees as Digital Sensors?​

Honey bees are more than just pollen collectors! With a sense of smell on par with dogs, honey bees can be trained to detect any smell, like explosives. But how these bees are trained to detect explosives, what their advantage is over sniffer dogs, and how other animals have been trained to perform unbelievable tasks for the armed forces, is #NotWhatYouThink #NWYT #long
 
Remember, California said recently they were going to ban police dogs due to racism. Got to have something else to detect stuff and sting criminals into submission rather than being mauled. Of course, criminals will simply buy Raid and spray the bees. Then Raid will be banned.
 
Those look like male bees, or drones. They come in, have sex with the queen, and then the entire hive of female bees runs their lazy asses out.

And bees don't live long enough to make this efficient.
