Bumblebees usually only sting when their nest is threatened.

A female bumble bee has a pointed abdomen with a stinger. Males do not have a stinger and the tip of the abdomen is rounded.

A bumblebee's stinger is smooth and can slide in and out of the skin. This allows the bumblebee to sting again and again!
