Each event has to be approached in context.
In Maine, we have truckloads of colonies (about 60,000) come in every
year to pollinate blueberries. About every third year we have a major
spill. One of those happened on a less traveled highway and many of the
bees were saved. Another was right by I-95 and the bees were killed by
firefighters spraying foam. In both cases, the news coverage was
favorable, mainly because there was a beekeeper spokesperson at the
scene who could explain the whys of what was going on.
