Hello everyone, On our latest podcast episode, we had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. James Nieh from the University of California in San Diego about the social learning of the waggle dance in honey bees. Dr. Nieh shared with us his insights on honey bee communication and the implications of these findings in modern beekeeping practices. We also discussed the potential effects of neurotoxic pesticides on honey bees' learning capacity and how it could interfere with their chances of competing in nature.
