<b> by Jeff Donlan</b>Turns out the humble bee is smarter than we’d thought.Researchers at the University of London conducted an experiment</a> to measure bees’ intelligence. They had to move a tiny ball to the center of a platform in order to get food. Researchers used a fake bee on the end of a stick to show how to move the ball.

The research proves that bees have the ability to adapt and learn new behaviors.
