Bumblebees have surprised scientists with their capacity for logic

Experts at the University of Stirling analyzed the behavior of bumblebees and realized that they possess logical thinking. The latter is the ability to make an effective decision in the absence of experience and data, as well as to make certain judgments.

During the experiment, the insects had to solve tasks similar to those offered to monkeys as well. For example, they were shown several cups, one of which contained a treat, and since one of the cups was always empty, a logical conclusion about the location of the reward could be drawn from this.
