Slow-motion footage shows bumblebees exhibiting preferences in behavior.

A recent study indicates that bees display 'emotion-like' behaviors, such as extending their glossa (tongues) after tasting something enjoyable. Researchers observed bumblebee actions that resemble 'liking' or 'disliking' through slow-motion video analysis. The study suggests that bees react differently to tasty treats and plain water, potentially supporting the idea of insect sentience.
