In todays's Indianapolis Star, in the light news sectioin, is a photo
of a beekeeper in Arizona apparently keeping killer bees. In the
photo, 2 men are wearing protective suits, bee veils, and leather
gloves. One is opening up the top of a hive, and a moderate number of
bees are crawling and flying around. The caption reads, "Beekeeper
Reed Booth of Bisbee, Ariz., opens a hive of Africanized "killer" bees
at his Old Bisbee apiary. He and partner Josh Krebs sell the killer
bees' honey and alos provide bee-removal service. Up to 85 percent
of southeastern Arizona's bees may be the Africanized variety, consdiere
much fiercer than normal honeybees."
I didn't realize it was allowed to keep AHB. Can this be true?
