- Honey bees are more than just pollen collectors! With a sense of smell on par with dogs, honey bees can be trained to detect any smell, like explosives. But how these bees are trained to detect explosives, what their advantage is over sniffer dogs, and how other animals have been trained to perform unbelievable tasks for the armed forces, is #NotWhatYouThink #NWYT #long

What was the most interesting part of the video?
Do you know of any other animals that have been trained to do cool things?
I trained my wife to spend all my money.
the fact that dogs and honey bees have the same smell sensitivity and can both be used to find bombs
werent there some dogs trained in one of the WW to smell diesel, so they run to russian tanks(they're running on diesel, while german ones on gasoline),and when them dogs went unter a tank, the bombmechanism on their back made boom...?
I know humans are so cool for the project and we are employing our best talents with the administration of niche technologies to exploit them . And we don't give a shit whether it would be sustainable for them or exasperating!

Humans: "We do not have enough bees for farming purposes"
Also humans:
The fact is it does not mean less bees for farming. The reason for the declining population of bees is not the usage of said bees in other purposes, it's quite the opposite.
It's that they can't live with all the trash we're putting in the air and/or soil, hazardous chemicals and such...
@@benoxiid God dammit, it's a joke my man! 😂 Although that bee handling is not to be appreciated anyways, if I may say.
The bees they're using are also invasive to North America, so in a way it helps the native bees.
Wild bees are the most important bees
There's plenty for farming. The problem is the declining number of wild bees. They are specialised pollinators that can pollinate few kinds of plants, but way more efficiently than honey bees. Like, a single wild bee can do the job of 1000 honey bees (depending on the bees and the plants they are specialised for).
Being trapped like this this is something out of my worst nightmares. At least they get released after a few days.
A typical worker bee lives for ~35-50 days according to Wikipedia. That would be like you being abducted and kept for 6-9 years. I am horrified by who thought of this, and the number of people who had to OK this before it got developed and used. I can't believe this exists.

One of the most useful organisms, please don't let them go extinct.
Honeybees are not in any danger of going extinct. Plenty of other bees are, but that's in part due to us spreading honeybees everywhere and specifically protecting them.
@@fishworshipper Yeah, honeybees compete with wild bees therefore disrupting the ecosystem. Buying honey is actually apart of the problem
@@willdaisey7406 ill buy more honey :troll_4k:
They are useful but they definitely shouldn’t be in the Americas as they don’t belong here and have hurt native wasps and bee population
Honey bee's go after large fields of flowers and Trees. They tend to avoid small patches of wild flowers and will completely avoid certain flower colors. A much bigger problem is humans using pesticides. One of the biggest killers of our local pollinators(Bee's, Butterflies, and Flies) is mosquito control. Towns will spray massive areas with pesticides. Then there are local companies that will spray private lawns. My neighborhood was a dead zone of pollinators. I tried to grow a garden my first year here and nothing that wasn't self pollinating would produce vegetables or fruit. I now have 2 beehives, 1 bubble bee Vase, and a ton of solitary bee houses. I have to cover everything with wet sheets when the town sprays.
“The bees need to chill” …and actually puts them into a fridge
I never would imagine I'd felt bad about bees :( poos guys, their lifespan is so short that spending a few days trapped must feel like an eternity
Id argues the opposite. The bees probably process information so fast that a few days goes by relatively quickly. A smaller brain/nervous system means they have to be far more efficient to do what they do, which means dropping unnecessary information. Like how a fly processes stimuli so quickly that we move in slow motion to them.
The bees being released after a few days means they're potentially now able to detect explosives in civilian populations.
Imagine being about to commit a terror attack and you get swarmed
@@fishnujish1511 only thing is all these attacks are from are government or ones they trained even school shootings if they even real. Who knows anymore. Truth is hard to find.
Imagine walking around your town and you say to yourself "huh there are no bees around" and then you remember this video.
Not really, a worker bee only lives for about a month, and assignments are designated by age. Newly emerged bees tend to the brood, and the oldest ones go out foraging.
Since they only take the ones that forage, for a few days, those bees are surely dead in a few more.

This is borderline Rick technology. Using Morty's to power his grid
The pigeon knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't.
If there is a situation where the pigeon forgets where it is, it subtracts where it isn't, from where it is, or where it is, from where it isn't. Whichever is greater.
What's sad is bees are not released to their own hive. Bees will likely just released outside the airport and they will die. Secondly even if they drove bees back to bee farms, they will by then lost their sense of pheromones and will be rejected by the beehive.
Yeah, I find it quite disappointing that the title of this video wasn't actually discussed...
Why can't we artificially give them the pheromones again so they aren't rejected in the new hive?
@@freshrockpapa-e7799 Because pheromones to each hives are incredibly unique. It can't be recreated by humans.
@@user-fx5sw4jy7hYz9Hzi just steal it from the bees duh

This is really the equivalent of an Alien abducting a human but worst case scenario
this is like the flintstones when the bird draws the photograph inside the camera
This is such a minecraft like approach. People often use mobs as sensors.
Also... this reminds me of animal cruelty of the 60's
best of both worlds
most beekeeper's scoop a few hundred bees into a cup and wash them with alcohol (this kills the bees) to determine a mite-infestation count. This is done like 3-4 times during their productive stages.
:-( rip bees
Yes there is actual redstone that involves bees triggering the beehive
@@escapetherace1943 It's done with anti freeze to multiple hives in a yard. A medium honey bee farmer has like 40 yards. RIP bees indeed.
@@whallinbrot1477 never heard about antifreeze but maybe some do it because it's cheaper than alcohol. I keep bees I don't kill them for mite counts though
I feel for them. I wish we could explain to them that they have been chosen to be part of a super elite bee training program. I feel as though they would feel better knowing that, or perhaps it's just me that would feel better, hah.
You are the chosen few. You, are the Bee Squad

well they do get sugar water.

I bet a bee can dance the info to another if we made an AI Bee that can translate what they are saying into an alphabet. 😂
KKKKK fico imaginando a abelha chegando de volta a colmeia depois de tudo isso e tentando explicar para as outras todo o rolê que ela passou
That bees looks more happiest than Me in my work
This could simplify the whole TSA process by selectively breeding hornets to sting anything that smells like explosives. Not everyone would be deterred by the possibility of death, but I feel like a lot of people would be deterred by a swarm of hornets flying toward them.
Explosion is painless
Wouldn't experience anything for like maybe one second
A bunch of hornets?
That shit gone hurt
Sounds like good idea until the Taliban invent a tiny button for the hornets to press and explode terrorism anyways
This i agree so much, imagine just releasing 10000 bees at large airports, maybe even a 100000. I think its a great idea.
Bad idea. Next thing you know you have next of kin suing you because your hornets stung someone to death just because that person had had some fun at the gun range recently.
Aside from the obvious joke, this is a pretty bad idea considering false positives. If you shot guns or handled fireworks the same day you would be annihilated for no reason
