Over the weekend something happened to 6 of ten hives we have back in
the woods near our farm. We live in a place where bears seldom
frequent and usually only then in the spring. The last bear damage
to beehives was 6 years ago.
Over the weekend this row of hives was visited and someone/thing
knocked over 6 of them. I would have thought a bear, however, except
for the hives getting a good shove and turning them over, no other
damage. The frames weren't damaged, though some of them had come out
of their box. Would a bear just turn over hives without sampling the
contents?
I can't think of a human, though, who would come back this far just
to vandalize some hives.
