SCP-3454: The Land DENIERS of Tall Bees

What is it about the Foundation and BEES?

Site-BEES, location of the portal to the Land of Tall Bees.

Item #: SCP-3454

Object Class: Euclid

Special Containment Procedures: Any individual leaving the Land of Tall Bees is to be interrogated until it can be determined whether or not they are an SCP-3454 instance. Containment of SCP-3454 individuals is to be enacted immediately. The Lead Researcher of Site-BEES is tasked with:

determining what is to be done with individuals who are SCP-3454, and

ascertaining the best way to introduce the entire population of Earth to the Land of Tall Bees, one person at a time, with Foundation personnel given priority.

Research is ongoing.

Description: SCP-3454 is the designation for individuals who don't agree that the bees are tall.

The Land of Tall Bees1 is accessible via a temporospatial tear23 located inside an abandoned Target Canada store in Niagara Falls, Ontario. The bees are very tall.

The portal to the Land of Tall Bees was discovered in 2016 by an individual who understood the bees and their tallness. The portal was brought to the Foundation's attention after numerous SCP-3454 instances contacted the police, outing themselves as anomalies. After securing the location, Foundation personnel were introduced to the Land of Tall Bees4 and the location began operation as Site-BEES.

It is currently unknown why some individuals are SCP-3454. Unfortunately, the only way to determine whether or not an individual is SCP-3454 or not is to send them through the portal. This often upsets the bees. You do not want tall, upset bees.

Indications of being SCP-3454 include:

lack of desire to discuss the bees

disinterest in the bees

not stating the bees are tall without being prompted

interfering in Foundation operations at Site-BEES.
