    I hope somebody can help me with this: could a bee theoretically evolve to have a stronger stinger so that stinging a human’s skin multiple times would be possible?

    If bees would evolve like other animals those who survive stinging humans would produce more offspring, but in this case only the queen produces offspring and the queen probably contact with human skin so this trait wouldn’t be favoured by evolution. Or am I looking at this wrong?
