Bees used as bomb/drug sniffers...
« on: August 08, 2014, 12:58:58 pm »
I watched a much more in-depth show on this a few weeks ago on the Discovery channel, History channel, Spike... something...?  This doesn't show anywhere near the same detail the sho I watch did, but it's still pretty cool...

sorry but i think the planet needs to leave the bees alone.........i see this in the video, and i am thinking, are you serious?  cruel to the honey bees the interviewer asks? yes it dang well is in my HO, and then some other opinion of this research.  canines do a fine job, let's leave the bees alone, they already have enough challenges, and as do we as beekeepers. my opinion, in short? shameful.





EDIT AND ADD:
capn, thanks for the post, not expressing my opinion about the post, just what i think regarding the research....... ;)
