In a new National Geographic docuseries, viewers get a look inside a bee hive. The series is called
Secrets of the Bees — and since there’s nobody we know who loves bees more than entomologist
Sammy Ramsey, we brought him on the show to share some of these secrets. We cover how bees play together (yes, play!), their ability to fend off predators four-times their size and a mite wreaking havoc on honeybees everywhere.
