certainly, your question is thrilling! something with an intestinal tract can theoretically fart. Fish do and that i've got seen a goldfish bypass wind. The gasoline is notably methane and is produced by employing methanogenic micro organism that stay harmlessly interior the intestines. i don't understand in the event that they stay interior the intestines of invertebrates even with the undeniable fact that it may make experience in the event that they do. i could subsequently speculate that the respond is that bumblebees are able to farting. on your different question, definite, flies do defecate. they have an intestinal tract and an anus. The scent of a bumblebee's fart should not be resembling a human's. Methane would not scent (the scent in organic gasoline is further) and the scent of a human fart comes from risky compounds contained interior of bile. A bumblebee would not produce bile, so its fart could certainly be candy smelling, smelling of what it has eaten, nectar.

According to Aristophanes (an ancient Greek playwright) the buzz insects make is due to farting. In actual fact insects can expel digestive gasses but this is not the same as a proper fart.
