1 in 5 peopledie in war every second
A lot of people die all the time at war, though if that were true for people in general, the human population would die out in less than a minute.
When I volunteered to go to a peacekeeping operation, I saw that more people died on highways every weekend in a nearby country, than in a war near where I was to peacekeep.
On the other hand, if you are in tanks like I was, I have heard about a statistic, that the average time to live in the field of a tank battle is 15 minutes. So there you go. That's the average.

Also, it depends on the army, the solider, the weapons, and the area.

Is a bumblebee war or cold blooded?
It is in fact very unlikely that a bumblebee would have a war going on in its blood and the odds of this being a nuclear war much similar to the 'cold war' or a war in which people are being ruthlessly 'cold blooded is extremely unlikely. If i was asked this question in an exam i would probably answer neither due to the low probability of their even being a war. If however you mean warm or cold blooded the answer is in fact that they are cold blooded like all non-mammals or birds.
