A lot of the time they harvest the insects ahead of time and create the shot in a controlled environment. Sometimes they can find it happening out in nature.
I have studied movies and in nature programs they "cheat" a lot. But they do not cheat by filming it inside a zoo or something like that .. In this and many other clips, they are likely to film several different bees and larvae in nature within a week or two and then they cluster them into a single story. The female who has sex with the invaded male is probably not the same female they filmed in the nest. The larvae born in the beginning are not the same larvae who eats nectar in the end. Everything is just cut together. When it comes to the equipment, they use mini cameras that you place on narrow tubes or metal threads that you can bend and insert.

Um they sort of can…they increase the rate of miscarriages and can cause congenital deformities with severe heart and neurologic sequelae. Also chlamydia can cause ectopic pregnancies which not only kill the baby but also kill the mother.
@Karina Peters The way the bacteria and viruses work is that they literally do eat part of the person. They usually cause dysfunction to cell structures including DNA in their nutrition uptake/life processes then wallah you get symptoms.
Everybody here is talking about the bees and the little bugs... no one appreciate the hard work of the camera man... well, that was a unique and exquisite footage. Thank you again camera man.
No one makes a big deal of the invention/discovery of The Camera. 📸. And Film. It was amazing to say the least, and still is. And all the stuff that were "discovered" or "realized" as a result. And especially Image. The only unbiased image that can be captured was a reflection, either on water, or shiny reflective metal. But that Image could not be saved. Seeing is believing. Or believing is seeing. You have to see to believe. Or you have to believe to "see", or "realize".
I believe most bees are solitary. Being eusocial is much harder than being independent from a reproductive perspective, even if most individual insects on Earth are part of eusocial colonies
David, you ste truly an awesome man ! I love the way you silenced yourself when the bird started fussing at you. You certainly know how to vet the most out of every situation with any animals or in insects. Amazing, and I for one adore you and your beautiful interactions with nature.
Evolution? Seriously thats what you got from that awesome display of how perfectly God created that system? Dont sell yourself short. Open your eyes.....you actually think the perfectly camouflaged stick insect dropping its egg into an ant hole and having another helpless species raise its baby thinking its a seed all developed by random freak mutations naturally selected over millions of years? Dont oppress yourself with those beliefs!
@@Memorize-Quran-With-Me "you actually think the perfectly camouflaged stick insect dropping its egg into an ant hole and having another helpless species raise its baby thinking its a seed all developed by random freak mutations naturally selected over millions of years? " Pretty much, yeah. That's how evolution works, you're only seeing the results of natural selection after it does the clean up to get rid of those who weren't "perfectly camouflaged" enough. That explanation certainly beats "magic man poofed stuff into existence" BS. You know? Since evolution and biology have this stuff called "evidence"? Something your belief can only dream of lol.
@@GoldSrc_ yes "evidence" where are all these "not fit enough" species? The world should be filled with their clutter. Yet we see perfect order.

Evidence in front of your eyes pointing to the One who made you and your world. Darwin got shivers just looking at things like a peacock's feather because his heart knew it was evidence of Creation and not possible by chance.
@@Memorize-Quran-With-Me Those species who couldn't fit, went extinct. I don't think you even understand what natural selection even is. The Earth gets 5 million km closer to the Sun over the course of a year, in January we are 5 million km closer to the Sun than on July. Plus, the Earth could get as far as Mars and we would be fine; no "freezing". As close as Venus things would get hot, but not close to "burning", as Venus sits in the red area of the habitable zone. You literally have nothing to defend your superstitious belief, nothing. You don't even have a layman understanding of science.
@@GoldSrc_ Enough with the snarky attitude. Listen....there is no life on mars or venus. I rest my case about earth's distance from the sun being perfect for life. God created it that way for you to truly accept that we are not by chance but by design and with purpose. Natural selection cannot be your God, because it only hypothetically ELIMINATES bad genes/species, but does not give rise/create anything new. Hence later adherents to the religion of atheism added "mutations" but no mutation makes God's creation better....only worse. There are no examples of positive mutations, all mutations are disadvantageous. Case in point chernobyl. Furthermore, just look at the fossil records, species are the way they are since millenia. No intermediate forms found. Proof is in the pudding. Consider Irreducible Complexity: in a verse of Quran God says He created everything in "pairs" Look at the symbiotic relationship of bees and flowers. Without 1 the other ceases to exist.

Without the COMPLETE system God placed in its body to defend itself against predators, it would cease to exist and nothing could give rise to it. My advice to you pick up a quran and read it with an open heart. Don't sell yourself short, don't waste your life in this world and the next. Islam is the fastest growing religion on Earth for a reason. Why? Most new converts are women and the highly educated. Why?

Wow, so fascinating, so beautifully photographed. "Hi, I'm just gonna pull the camera back as the bee climbs out of the little tiny bee tunnel in the sand." Amazing!
Do you mean evolution? Are you asking how this process is not irreducibly complex? The first beetle larvae could have started out as accidental passengers and evolved to being more active seekers of rides. Or perhaps when the environment was more wet, the larvae actively hunted the bee burrows on their own without tricking them into rides. From there the pheromones might have evolved as a way of inhibiting defense response.
Zabidi the larvae that accidentally hitched a ride on a bee were far more likely to reach adulthood and reproduce. Larvae that clustered up on sticks and/ or smelled like female bees were more likely to attract a bee. So these functions were passed on to a much larger amount of offspring that then repeated the process.

You feel sorry for that hardworking bee. Nature is not always that friendly, nevertheless it's amazing to watch!
Often nature is downright awful. Did you know there could be as many as 500,000 (!) species of parasitic wasps? Nature is gnarly.
Insects are so amazing, I love watching these types of shows. Thanks for uploading 👍👌✌🐜🐝
The poetry of a Stick Insect laying an egg that looks exactly like a seed was not lost on me. Bravo Nature, Bravo!
and i thought all bees were hive creatures. turns out there are about 750 species of bees that live solitary lives.
Crazy, right?
I believe most bees are solitary. Being eusocial is much harder than being independent from a reproductive perspective, even if most individual insects on Earth are part of eusocial colonies
At last, bug sex has been caught on tape. I'm glad to be a part of this experience.
