The vulture bees have extra teeth in their jaws and poisonous guts.
The vulture bees are living mainly in South America. Those bees are eating rotten meat and then make honey of that thing. That is the reason why those bees are called "vulture bees".
Most vulture bees are harmless, but there is one thing that there is something hidden in jungles that is not so harmless. The thing that makes scientists believe that there might be some kind of dangerous species is that some of those bees are bitten people causing painful sores.
Also, there is the possibility that some vulture bees can have botulinum bacteria in their teeth after they are eaten rotten meat. Or something like that as the food that thing can cause that the botulinum bacteria is transferring in the human body causing poisoning. There is no evidence about the vulture bees that are hunting other animals. But as we know there are things like migratory ants (also: Army ants and Bivouac ants) that can make even humans disappear in minutes.
In normal cases, we think ants are harmless but migratory ants are the exception. And the migratory ants are suspected to be behind some missing person cases. There are also species in the world of bugs that are hunting only at night. So even if we don't have met the vulture bees that are hunting other animals.
We must say that in jungles and nature is many dangerous things. Things like climate chancing are also affecting species and there is the possibility that if the species will not get enough food its behavior changes.
And when we are thinking about other necrophages. We are facing the behavior where those animals are eating mainly carcasses. But if there is not enough food they are turning predators. Also, when the species are coming to the new environment they can eat something that turns them deadly.
One of the examples is the killer bees. Killer bees are normal bees that were brought from Africa to America. Normally, bees are quite harmless. But when they are eating the nectar of one flower they are turning into killers. Probably that nectar makes them believe that all of them are queens. So there is the possibility that the same thing happens when some South-American species are moving to Europe as container passengers. There is a couple of "nice animal videos" of vulture bees when they are destroying carcasses.
