Not intentionally. But if it has died from some reason other than having stung something, the stinger will be intact and should be avoided.

The bee can't sting anymore. It is dead. However the sting itself keep pumping toxin for a while after it separates from the bee and so you can, in theory, be stung more than once if you were to rub the sting and then get stabbed with it again. I accidently walked into a lot of bees once (in the dark) and about 100 stung me at once. Ouch. I dare say some of them (stingers) got me more than once since I was madly trying to rub them off myself. Thankfully I am not allergic or I'd be dead.

no I don't think so unless it just dies. I have picked up a bee I thought was dead and got stung, so I am not sure if a bee can do that after death. owie..

yes it can....but most of it is you touching it's stinger...it can still release the venom/poison...but it can't always move it's stinger....if it's squashed it has no chance but if it's head came off then there's a possibility it could still sting...but 95% of it is if you touch the stinger

Not if leaving its stinger in its last victim was its cause of death..
