Why Do Honeybees Dance?
Julian O'Dea :
When a honeybee returns to the hive after a successful foraging trip, she often performs a dance that reflects in miniature the details of her trip. Yet current research suggests that locational information contained in the dance is not communicated to other bees. So what is the reason for the dance? Here, Julian O'Dea offers an evolutionary explanation.
