A busy bee’s life in the hive

There’s a lot more to European honey bees than making our favorite sweetener. Go behind the scenes with Luke Hearon, PhD student in the entomology department at The Ohio State University, to get an inside look at life — and work — in the hive.

From the queen bee to the workers, a beehive is highly structured and organized — but what does life look like for the average member of a honey bee colony? Hear from Luke Hearon, PhD student in the entomology department at The Ohio State University, as he guides us through the unbee-lievable world of European honey bees.
