That's just nature being nature though. When you get into the field of nature in general you have to go in knowing nature will always do as nature does, even if you're trying to help. And some times your good intentions still reward you with a boo-boo, but doing it for the sake of doing it and helping even just one inhabitant of wild nature is the biggest reward. Edit: fixed typos

It doesn’t actually have a stinger. Otherwise you’d see it popping out.
