Weird News: Millions of Honeybees are Disappearing!
Beekeepers,researchers and farmers are all abuzz about a mysterious wave of disappearances. Millions of honeybees are vanishing, leaving no clues and no dead bodies behind. The bees fly away from their colonies in search of pollen and nectar and never return.
Experts have a name for the honeybees' disappearing act: colony collapse disorder (CCD). Two dozen states have reported CCD.
Researchers are desperately seeking an explanation. CCD could be a result of a widespread disease. Another possibility is that honeybees are reacting to a harmful pesticide that confuses them. If bees are unable to find their hives, they could starve to death or freeze in the field. Yet another theory suggests that last summer's dry, hot weather led honeybees to stop working or to become ill.
