Beehive Colony Foraging & Wasp Predation (2D)

2D beehive foraging lab: worker bees fly hive-to-flower-to-hive collecting nectar into a colony reserve that funds new foragers, while wasps hunt bees in flight — colony size emerges from the balance between nectar income and predation loss.

The 3D original models "wasp threat" as a slider that just makes bees fly faster and nervier. This 2D companion makes that threat literal: real wasp agents patrol the meadow and strike any bee that strays too close, permanently removing it, while surviving foragers keep flying hive-to-flower-to-hive filling a shared nectar reserve that periodically funds a brand-new forager — so colony size is an emergent tug-of-war between nectar income and predation, not a fixed count you set with a slider.
