    It’s crazy how under appreciated bees are

    I sort of feel bad for the bees because they have to have their heads traped in a spot for a day. But I am impressed that the scientists can even get the bees heads trapped in a small eriea area .

      They put them in a fridge so their movement is slowed down

    Those bees are living the life for two days. They don't know much in life. But man did they find a buttload of sugar.

    If a hive of bees relied on me for survival, could I train them to attack people who harm me?

    Did anything ever come of this? I wonder if they could be used to detect COVID, dogs can do that.

    Maybe they can get honey bees to detect COVID-19?

    Workers live about 3 weeks (unless they are an overwintering working population) so this is about 10% of their lifespan or about 8 - 9 human years. As for their 'comfort'...well, bees are probably not concerned with personal comfort, but rather their specific role in the health of the colony, and clearly they fulfill no such function here. It's so nice to see yet another species being exploited to solve a human-made problem.
    You'd think the solution were obvious: stop making explosives to kill people...but of course our species is untrustworthy and unpredictable.

      @Username virgin "respect kind and gentle nature, humans are evil" vs the chad "humans are the apex predators and the dominant species"

      Okay. Go write a book about why we need a communist anarchy society where every human does as much as it can in a society so perfect that no human would ever deviate from kindness.
      Using a few bees for two days to detect bombs can save human lives, as well as animals! What part of nature do you think suffers most if an airplane explodes in the sky? Think of all that CO2 burned for nothing, as well as the raw mineral costs of rebuilding it!
