WHEN ANIMALS ATTACK
God has used in the past, and will use in the future, animals/insects as a
means of punishment against those that turn from him.
"I will also send wild beasts among you, which shall rob you of your children, and destroy your cattle, and make you few in number; and your ways [roads] shall be desolate." (Leviticus 16:22)
"So will I send upon you famine and evil beasts, and they shall bereave thee; and pestilence and blood shall pass through thee; and I will bring the sword upon thee. I the LORD have spoken it." (Ezekiel 5:17)
"And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the LORD: the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of the heaven, and the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy." (Jeremiah 15:3)
"And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth." (Revelation 6:8)
So at some point during the tribulation there will be an increase of
animals/insects attacking people and the food supplies. Foxes, skunks, mice, bats, and dogs,
can spread rabies and other diseases to our children and food supply.
Bee's, Wasps and Hornets
"And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power ... and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion, when he striketh a man. And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them." (Rev. 9:3,5-6)
So at some point during the tribulation there will be creatures that sting,
and it will be so extreme that people will want to die.

Here's What To Do If You're Attacked By A Swarm Of Wasps Or Bees.
In that event, the US Department of Agriculture advises that you “RUN away quickly” – the capitalization being theirs.
“Do not stop to help others. However,” they hasten to note, “small children and the disabled may need some assistance.” You should also pull your shirt up over your head to protect your face, but make sure you know where you’re running before you go temporarily blind.
If you jump into water, these particular bees will genuinely wait for you to come up for air, so you should instead run indoors. Even if some follow you inside, they tend to become disorientated in well-lit areas, providing you with a chance at further escape in your chosen shelter.
If you are stung and you feel ill, you should seek medical attention immediately. If there are just a handful of stings protruding into your flesh, you should remove them carefully – but don’t pinch them with your fingers, as this will inject more venom into the body. Instead, scrape it out with a sideways slice using a thin object.
