Honeybees Can Learn The Difference Between Odd And Even Numbers, Just Like Us - ScienceAlert

Back in 2018 scientists announced how the humble honeybee comprehends the concept of zero but now it seems there are more insights to apian arithmetic. A new study demonstrates bees understand the difference between odd and even numbers by teaching them to associate odd numbers with sugar water which encouraged them to learn quicker according to Scarlett Howard. It's not too far-fetched of an idea as Natalia Mesa learned of a new study showing Dopamine Drives Bee Desires, growing pleasant memories, and a drive to continue chasing their own bee 'dragons' in the name of whatever it means to be a bee. Weirder still, those dopamine rushes may inform the type and intensity of wiggle dances they perform for their hives! (CS)
