This morning I discovered both my hives had been
knocked over and a bunch of frames spread out and broken up
Bears, people, badgers, horses - to name a few. Cows also, but they don't
pull out frames.
Skunks work the front entrances - wouldn't knock over unless the hives
were on unstable stands.

PS Before anyone says that horses are allergic to bee stings - I've seen
horses take apart hives, and the only verified horse deaths have been after
incidents of multiple stings to horses tied up, so they can't run away,
with a vet making the choice to put the horse down.
I've had badger bury nuc hives.
