A recent PBS special on great apes hypothesized that one reason these
creatures never became more "human-like" is because they couldn't
learn to control their "emotions," something humans have become
fairly good at. Some things, however, really push buttons that
bring to the fore those emotions, and they can lead to some heated
discussions and actions. What about the bees themselves? Besides
dancing, do they have
emotions? http://www.squidoo.com/bee_emotions. They certainly did
in Jerry Seinfeld's Bee Movie http://www.beemovie.com/, but of course
that was mostly about humans rather than bees.
