Scientists have always known that in order to forage for nectar as efficiently as they do, the tiny bumblebee had figured out the perfect solution to what is commonly referred to as 'The Traveling Salesman Problem' - that is figuring out the shortest routes from flower to hive. While this may sound simple it is actually a complex mathematical problem given that there are hundreds of different routes - One that takes even humans with their 'superior' brains seek out the help of computers to solve!

            I would take a look at doing the article 'Lucky British Students Get To Test Super Cool Interactive Desks.' It's very interesting and has to do with math! Hope this helped. :)

                      i learned that bumble bees are really smart because while they were trying to fly around they figured out a way to reduce with total distance from 2,000 to 500 meters. What are neurons? If bumblebees have one million nuerons, how many do we have? Do we even have any?
