Funny, yet honeybees have hairs on thorax and abdomen that shed with age just like other animals.....getting thin with age.

it is interesting to note that while the act covers bees, it does not
include them in its definition of livestock; by implication then they
are not. They exist in a class by themselves according to this
particular law.
Livestock, Poultry and Honey Bee Protection Act
R.S.O. 1990, CHAPTER L.24
Definitions
1. In this Act,
“fur-bearing animal” means an animal designated by name as a
fur-bearing animal in the Fur Farms Act or declared to be a
fur-bearing animal in the regulations made thereunder; (“animal à
fourrure”)
“livestock” means cattle, fur-bearing animals, goats, horses, rabbits,
sheep or swine; (“bétail”)
“poultry” includes game birds where game birds are kept pursuant to a
licence under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act, 1997;
(“volaille”)
“wolf” means any of the species Canis lupus L. or Canis latrans
8. Subject to subsection 4 (14), subsection 17 (3) and section 19,
where compensation is payable under this Act, the amount payable shall
not exceed the market value of the livestock, poultry, honey bees
[etc]
