Like ours, insects' brains take up most of the space in their heads, but their brains are smaller than a grain of rice, only 0.0002% as large as ours. But what purpose does the insect brain serve, and how does that drive their creativity, morality, and emotions?Bees in particular exhibit unexpected and fascinating cognitive skills. In What Do Bees Think About? animal cognition researcher Mathieu Lihoreau examines a century of research into insect evolution and behavior. He explains recent scientific discoveries, recounts researchers' anecdotes, and reflects on the cognition of these fascinating creatures. Lihoreau's and others scientist's research on insects reinforces the importance of protecting and preserving insects such as bees: after all, our survival on the planet is deeply dependent on theirs. This book provides an eye-opening window into the world of insect cognition and echoes an important ecological message about bees?they are intelligent creatures sharing the same fragile ecosystem as us. . 546 $a In English, translated from the French. 650 0 $a Bees. 650 0 $a Animal behavior. 700 1 $a Duncan, Alison, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20240524010206.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F1DDF778199211EFAA2C9EE853ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b BUPInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
