It is wrong to decipher the above lines literally.. This gist of that which i read in this link http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,365563,00.html?sPage=fnc/scitech/naturalscience is that.. but Asian and European honeybees living in the same hive can learn to translate each others' dances to help one another find food, a new study reveals. The bee dance, waggle dance varies from species to species.. the same communication is done in differently, as it depends on from where the bees come from.. Quite interesting.. Isn't it? Also it is said that the bees communicate in their dance.. the approximate distance where the food is.. ( Mapping !) the direction....( my god.. ) to their group.. It is really amazing to hear this.. Happy mylotting to all. Saivenkat.

Hi saivenkaat802003! Nature is really amazing! the waggle dance might soon be the latest dance craze! haha..just joking! It really is amazing how wonderful other life forms communicate with each other. And maybe in their own world, they are all criticizing how human can't communicate harmoniously with one another. Sigh! Take care always..God Bless!

well i guess its not only human who got some instinct..insects or animals have too..yeah its interesting to note that by dancing bees can transmit and can communicate as well...just like people who dance in an interpretative way of dancing..such as in courting,marriage and the like..do your culture have some interpretative dance also? as what i had stated above?
