"I am already not too fond of heights and seeing the bees didn’t really help me going down that way,” said hiker Kevin Oandasan."  :rofl: :rofl:

I don't understand why he hikes it if he is not fond of heights... :crazy: ???

oh hey, one of the many areas that the city refuses to enforce it's own laws on.

I'm not really sure that's a problem.  If we just leave the bees alone, they might solve the trespassing problem for the state!

Swarms are not very dangerous as long as you don't mess with them.

We should feed the bees so they can multiply.

At least they are not of the Africanized type of bees. That would be a real shame if they were.  :D :D :D

Massive bee swarm descends on Arizona neighborhood, 4 hospitalized

http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/09/23/usa-bee-attacks-idUSL1N11T1Q020150923

Quote
Thousands of bees swarmed through a suburban Phoenix neighborhood, stinging six people,
including four who had to be hospitalized, before firefighters drove them off with foam and fire hoses.

One of the victims in the Tuesday evening bee attack in Gilbert, Arizona, was a firefighter who was
stung 40 to 50 times after the insects got inside his special protective hood, said Mike Connor, a
deputy chief with the Gilbert Fire and Rescue Department. The firefighter was among those taken
to a hospital for treatment.

The bee swarm sent residents scrambling into their homes, where they were advised to stay by
authorities as crews closed down a residential street to battle the amorphous cloud of insects.

To bee ,or not ....

... oh, never mind!   :rofl:

Ludicrous.

By all means, let's not ACTUAL nature spoil peoples enjoyment of what they consider "nature" to be.

This is like the idiot that told the rangers at Yosemite they "Need to train the bears so we can see them better. We didn't see any bears at all!"

These are the kinds of morons that get eaten by mountain lions and wolves, and deservedly so. It improves the species.

Hmmmm, I wonder if anyone would get suspicious if a mountain lion was suddenly found living in the area? Just thinking out loud....  :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

I'd like to spice up the place by putting some rhinos and hippos in the area.

We can always say that they are an endangered species and that we are just doing our part to make the world a better place.  :crazy:

I have a better idea.  Let's put up signs that a new telescope is being built at the summit of the Koko Head trail.  We'll have all the help we need keeping people from going up the trail!
