Social Transmission Of Nectar-robbing Behaviour In Bumblebees
Social Transmission Of Nectar-robbing Behaviour In Bumblebees
Recent studies have found that insects, despite their small brains, can learn about their environment through interaction with others. However, the possibility that such learning might extend to skills, in addition to simple facts, has never been tested. Here, we show that a bumblebee foraging skill can be transmitted socially. Nectar-robbing occurs when bees bite through the base of flowers to “steal” nectar without pollination.
