A truck containing 330 crates of bees, about 12 million of them altogether, overturned on a major highway near the town of St Leonard, New Brunswick, in Eastern Canada on Monday, setting free thousands of irritated stinging insects. Police sealed off the vehicle and called for expert help with the millions that were left inside.
"Trying to unload 12 million agitated bees out of the back of a truck would not be a good situation," said Derek Strong, a local spokesman for the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
A team of beekeepers arrived and poured smoke into the truck to calm down the bees, which will be moved later in the day. Police said there was no general danger to the public.

"A golden eagle from the raptor show had perched high on a log about ten feet up in the air. A few crows took exception to the invasion and started harassing the eagle by aggressively swooping down on it, when suddenly two of the lionesses snuck up on it. They jumped on the log attempting to attack the eagle, but missed. The eagle managed to fly away but right into the waiting jaws of a third lioness, who pounced on it."
Su's daughter burst into tears at the events unfolding in front of her, which he says served to remind her that lions are "by no means cuddly."
"It was such a well co-ordinated attack, the poor thing had no chance," he said. "The handlers arrived within seconds but could only watch helplessly as the lioness bounded away with her prize."

Yuna and a few dozen classmates from local elementary schools visited the whale slaughterhouse in Wadamachi, one of Japan's four coastal towns allowed to catch a small number of the ocean giants.
Clutching a notebook and a pencil, Yuna and her classmates occupied the front row of the crowd Wednesday, bending forward to watch a 10-metre (33-foot) animal -- the town's first catch of the three-month season -- be dismembered.
"Look! That's her heart!" Yuna said to her friends with her face half covered by her hand. "Oh no, so much blood is gushing out."
Another schoolgirl, Honami Shoji, 11, said, "I feel bad for the animal."
"But we also eat the meat and appreciate it," she said calmly. "We're lucky to be born in this town."
Schoolchildren of Wadamachi, about 70 kilometres (45 miles) southeast of Tokyo, have watched the whale slaughter since 1999 in this town which is allowed to catch 26 Baird's beaked whales each season.
