A Civilization 100 Million Years Old 

Yes. Sensitive people notice these things. I was once pushed aside by a wasp who was going someplace in a hurry.

I dont know what it is about me but my whole life I been intersted and respected in Bees, something about them fascinates me, even when I get stung, I had bee keepers keep them on my property, I usually get stung while driving my motorcycle into them a 70 mph I mean how can a Bee sting you at that speed, what's the chances that everytime they connect and sting me running into their stinger,

Was an apprentice for a year and want to go back, no brainrot, just me n bees

Background music is quite annoying I must say, however superb educational documentary covering bees.

Kinda feel sorry for the drone bees. To have the greatest ecstacy and then to be gone in the next minute 😔

no you didn't. story. never happened.

I read once that ants total mass would exceed the total mass of humans

Bees are awesome, but just check out the nasty wasps

@@markfromct2 it’s true

​@@yearthreethou9508that's actually been debunked. It's an estimation bordering on a guess since there's no way to accurately account for any, much less all, of the variables necessary to get anywhere close to an accurate estimation.

I agree! I was in the business as a commercial beekeeper and Honey producer for 25 years loved every minute of it. Well accept when black bears would destroy my hives.

@@ajdogcurr1cool. Check out the new movie the beekeeper with Jason Statham.

What's the best way to get into beekeeping?

@@greencasestudy First and formost read read read. Then get a couple of beehives, then find an experienced beekeeper who does it for a living and learn from that person. You will learn a lot. It is not an easy business to get started. I takes a lot of dedication and determination. But it can be very very rewarding and prosperous. If you are willing to make sacrifices.

Thanks @@ajdogcurr1 my question was actually directed at @robertshorthill6836 but i appreciate your response. I'm not looking to get into it for the business, but just because i love bees, and also honey.

Bees usually only sting when protecting their honey that is stored, those bees were probably foraging

Correct

Mind your own bees-ness 😂😂

Are you sure they weren't Wasp yellow jackets

@@bullseyenow1 nah I don't fuck with wasps

You are a blessing to all of humanity. Bless you in your work.

No, relatively speaking they’re not that amazing

@@ginomoreno5117shut up clown

@gregmoniz6452 lol, then you are uneducated ...

@gregmoniz6452 Respectfully, I'm going to have to side with the comment above me. We as humans, wouldn't survive without bees. That's how important they are to our ecology. No kidding. Blessings to you for researching the topic. You'll see.

Teachers certainly are the best at showing kids stuff about bees... and 15 other gender identities 🤧

@@c3N3q😅

I had a candle co and would get wax from a couple local bee keepers. One guy. Norman Farmer, had 900 hives. To me it seemed pretty crazy to watch him just wipe off 100's of bees with his hands. Another lady gave it to me raw, and it was filled with honey. In order to separate it I'd melt it, let it cool and the wax would settle at the top. One thing I noticed about warming up the honey or the wax, it would attract bees and it would also keep flies away.

Yet, isn't honey sterile? Honey doesn't go bad - ever! You can heal wounds with it. It never grows mould or becomes poisonous.

Just a comment with all respect..Bees are essential to human life. Along with all species, insects have a purpose..its just unaccepted to many who should take a bit of time to seek the knowledge of nature's purpose.

A poet we have now and good too.

It’s when “billions of years “gets chucked around as science fact I kind of lose interest. Overall it’s a good video but the hyperbole is unnecessary.

@@Katya-zj7ni Hyperbole? I'll have to listen again... It's amazing to me, that humans owe their very existence to Bee's. Science has tried, but cant reproduce what Bee's do. It has been impossible to reproduce pollination on a large enough scale, only the Bee's can do that.

Bee's, the very source of our existence!

It wasnt! We humans are “hyper social” creatures. Putting intention on anything like doors and animals. And faces on cars. A bee is a set of funktions/instinkts, like a cell. A bee hive is almost like a creature of flying cells. (Im a bee keeper)

​@@JakobHoldensen again it's just your belief system that bees are instinctual and can't think or have consciousness or conscience. Just like 150 years back Victorian people use to think blacks are instinctual and don't have consciousness

Jakob is full of sh... he was definitely protecting you

@JakobHoldensen Who can't spell Functions or Instinct correctly? Look, it has been proven that bees can memorize faces and recognize them when they see them again. Bees are highly social creatures with a language and a structured society. I think you are not giving bees enough respect.

@@Archer-NatureWorn They are impressive yes. I'm still puzzled how they decide where to settle when they form a swarm or communicate where to fly by dancing. (remember the hive is in darkness).. Scientists are amazed of how such a small brain can recognise a face. and so on. But they are insects. You can call them highly social but not I our way or like dogs. If you find an old forest (they say about 200 years old) you find communication of a level that is hard to comprehend among the trees. Its amazing. but trees are different than us, just like bees. Humans are amazing in being hyper social. The ability to look at an other human and know that he know that I know without speaking. Its a super power but it messes with us to look at beings and misunderstand the unspoken communication. That's why we mistreat our pets by dressing them up and shit, and make cartoons with ducks living in houses. Sorry about the spelling. You know how it is when you'r not nativ in a language, and I don't think you understand danish.

I've heard about this practice here in California

Very harmful to their species with absolute disregard to their intended purpose.

While your description is an inaccurate & gross oversimplification, this process is the current result of a pretty logical progression of circumstances. We enjoy our orange juice. Orchards need to be pollinated. Some enterprising entrepreneurs recognized how valuable orchard keepers would consider it to have the extra time devoted to pollination and transient hives for hire became the obvious lucrative business result. While credit should be given to the genius problem-solving, I also liken the initial booming success and slow, gradual decline in production to the short-sighted policies of the turn-of-the-century farmers who ignored the decline of topsoil until wild dust storms forced the current crop rotating practice. There's evidence that they recognize a problem and, w entomological assistance, are seeking answers. The upside is that the industry has such deep pockets that we needn't worry about funding running out before sussing out some theories and responses.

Bees are not accountance unlike humans.

Both of yall sound dumb

Wind does the same shit

​@@dennisgarrett112 uh no it doesnt? A single bee can polinate thousands of flowers a day

@@dennisgarrett112 Where were you educated, cupcake? 🧁

I 😣 when the bee stung and flew away without a piece of its abdomen. I wouldn't want to be stung by a bee, but seeing that it died that way is very sad. A horrible accident happened, is what it felt like. If I were stung by a bee, it is more likely that I did something to cause the stinging.

@@wip1664 No honey bee 🐝 wishes to sting-it’s a one time mortal event. As a former amateur beekeeper, bees are extremely sophisticated creatures, with a phenomenal instinct for preservation of a) first, the hive; and b) second, itself-rather like observable behavior in ant colonies. And, sadly, until very recently in the comparatively short timeline of the evolution of Homo sapiens (generously, the last 1,000 years, realistically the last 300), human societies were similarly ordered-you know, before the needs of the one outweighed the needs of the many….

So you got honey beer

😂

Haha, no Bee uprising, as long as we respect them! Worry more about human activity, reducing Bee numbers. It's humbling, knowing we owe our very existence to the Bee's! They die, we die. .. I worry about that!🤔

I believe that any insect has a purpose in nature.

@@anitataylor7179 Even plants have a purpose.

Dragonflies are great too, they eat mosquitoes! I've tried, but cant accept mosquitoes, they kill more people annually, than any other creature on earth. Check statistics, it's true. Nasty, disease spreading mosquitoes, the cause of so much human misery.

Respect and NEED. We owe our very existence to the Bee's. No Bee's, no food, no life. Science has been unable to reproduce pollination on the necessary scale, should we lose the Bee's! We must look after them, honey is nice, but secondary to all the other things they do for us.

Yes! We must respect Bee's and help them to survive. Its humbling, knowing we owe our very existence to Bee's! Science has been unable to reproduce pollination on a large enough scale, in the event we lose the Bee's. Only the Bee's can do that, hard working little creatures.

If that was true, they would have all starved to death by now

Hopefully, responsible bee keepers make sure the colonies are protected. After all, they know our very existence depends on the Bee's. Bee's die, we die... Science hasn't been able to reproduce pollination, on the scale done by Bee's.

Everything is mand made, so I doubt it

​@@ronylouis799It's because of how many foods and essential plants are completely dependant on bees to pollinate.

I have two 30+ year old Bing cherry trees in close proximity to each other. They never had produced cherries until I began bee keeping and noticed the many worker bees on them when they flower in early sping

🤓

Educating people about human evolution dating back millions of years, might upset some people.

100,000 years old! WHEREs all the Honey?

​@@dianahill5116indeed

I think he meant modern humans are about 100,000 years old. How we evolved from primordial humans to homo sapiens in such a short space of time is the real mystery (brain size more than doubled)

The math in various places is quite flawed. Written by an AI. Not well enough proofed. Should have been proofed by a human entomologist, not AI. In one place, it says queen mattress with 7-10 drones, then followed by the queen carrying the semen of 'dozens' of drones. Overall, most of the info is pretty accurate, though.

@@jamesbsa6450 If you look at the channel as a whole, it's obvious that there is a lot of AI influence, especially with the thumbnails. I'd definitely mark the channel down as entertainment over being informational necessarily, but this one isn't too bad.

Interesting analogy, but I suppose technically, the seed of a colony is a drone because it is the equivalent of flying sperm, with 100% of its genes derived from exactly half of the mother. But certainly some colonies overswarm themselves to death of the original colony, but one could apply Dr. Tom Seeley's work and perhaps up to a fifth of the swarms could make it through winter.
