Honey bees
Scientific name: Apis

Description

Members of the genus Apis are renowned not just for their vital role in pollination, but also for their fascinating social structure and communication methods. These creatures use the 'waggle dance' to convey detailed information about the location of food sources to their hive mates. Contrary to popular myth, not all Apis species are aggressive or prone to stinging; their behavior often depends on their role within the colony and the threat perceived.
