The thing that annoys me with this incident is not the fact
that the truck overturned.

Nor the fact that the authorities first called for
beekeepers to pick up the bees.

Nor the fact that they had to water them down.

What annoyed me was that the drivers of the truck, that
should have been beekeepers were not allowed to grap the
boxes of bees they could and keep on driving, but maybe
they couldn't (not enough info given.)

But they took a front loader, Scoop bucket tractor rig, and
then scooped up the bees in the boxes and threw them over
the sides of the bridge (should have shut down and
redirected traffic IMPOV) to smash to pieces at the bottom
on ground to create an even BIGGER MESS which would be even
more sever bee stinging in frenzy with public and then made
decision to water them down.)

This to me is the height of disrespect...........would they
do this to other livestock?

Somehow the teachings of how to deal with an overturn have
gotten way off base here IMPOV. So much for teachings as
how to PROPERLY deal with a turnover and in this case a
person's livehood with shortfall expected for the almonds.
