🚨 Beekeeping Emergency Response

A 3D apiary where you trigger pesticide poisoning, disease outbreak or colony collapse, then apply an emergency response and watch colony population, dead-bee counts and outcome respond live.

A 3D apiary that lets you trigger and compare three real acute beekeeping emergencies — pesticide poisoning, sudden disease outbreak and colony collapse disorder — then apply an emergency response and watch the outcome change.

🔬 What It Demonstrates

Each scenario drives a different population-transition model: fast paralysis-and-die-off with a visible dead-bee pile for poisoning, slower bee-to-bee spread for disease, and silent, pile-free vanishing for colony collapse — matching how field responders actually distinguish these cases.

🎮 How to Use

Pick a scenario and severity, watch the colony respond in real time, then toggle "Apply emergency response" to see how quickly intervention slows losses versus doing nothing. Reset to rerun with different settings.

💡 Did You Know?

A sudden pile of dozens of dead bees at the entrance is the classic acute-pesticide signature, while true Colony Collapse Disorder is defined in part by the near-total absence of dead bees — the workers simply never come home.
