What is the Waggle Dance
It is a figure of eight movement that a worker bee does to get the attention of other worker bees, to show them where they found the forage that have brought back to the hive.
Benefit of Bees
Pollination
Bees are pollinators, which means they help plants reproduce by transferring pollen from one flower to another. This process is called cross-pollination and it helps produce stronger, more disease-resistant plants. According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, bees are responsible for pollinating a third of the world's food supply.
Food & Biodiversity
Bees produce honey, royal jelly, and pollen, which are all high-quality foods.
Bees are part of the biodiversity that supports the food chain. They pollinate wild flowers and trees, which in turn support other insects, birds, bats, and mammals.
Products & Innovation
Bees produce other products, such as beeswax and propolis, which have many uses. For example, beeswax candles are popular and can be used to make cosmetics, coat thread, and seal letters. Propolis is used in gynecological care, oral health, and dermatology care.
The honeycomb structure of beehives has inspired structural engineering, and the design of bee stingers has inspired surgical needles. Bee behavior has also inspired computer-based search and optimization processes.
Secure Our Future
However, bee populations are declining due to environmental factors. In the UK, two species of bumblebee have gone extinct in the last 80 years.
