Fun Fact: Bees in Training

If you thought that bees were only good for producing honey, then think again!
Even though bee's brains are only one-twenty thousandth the size of ours, they can actually be trained to do a multitude of useful tasks.

Just your common honey bees can be trained to recognize people's faces and track down explosives, landmines and chemicals such as illegal drugs. I love me some bees!
Apparently bees are trained pretty much the way dogs are and their reward of choice is none other than food - well, beats a pat on the head, right.

So can you train a bee not to sting? I'll get right on it, but in the meanwhile methinks you would be better off with drones (male bees) because they complitely lack the stingers.

Pretty impressive you say. Well then get your buzz on and imagine a world where a swarm of well trained, stinger-free bees are patrolling the streets at night; hunting down drug dealers, unibombers and...people's faces and - apart from impaired hearing problems - we'd have much safer neighbourhoods, lower taxes, plus more of that sweet honey to go by with; Hurray for the Bee Force!
