Bee predation[edit]
In Japan, beekeepers often prefer European honey bees because they are more productive than the endemic Japanese honey bees. However, it is quite difficult to maintain a captive hive of European honey bees, as the hornets will often prey on the bees.
Once a Japanese giant hornet has located a hive of European honey bees it leaves pheromone markers around it that quickly attract nest-mates to converge on the hive. A single hornet can kill forty European honey bees in a minute; a group of 30 hornets can destroy an entire hive containing 30,000 bees in a little more than three hours. The hornets kill and dismember the bees, returning to their nest with the bee thoraxes, which they feed to their larvae, leaving heads and limbs behind. The hornets also eat the bees' honey.

the more interesting fact is that the reason asian honey bees can defend against hornets is that they have learned that they can survive a higher temperature than the hornets by like 3 degrees so they attack a hornet & cover it with tons of bees & vibrate their asses to create kinetic energy and literally burn the hornets alive while they can survive the heat except for maybe a couple in towards the middle of the bee ball
