CHA study published in Science challenges the common perception of insects as purely instinct-driven creatures by showing that bees can spontaneously solve problems without prior training or observation. Researchers led by Olli Loukola at the University of Turku found that bees can generate novel solutions to reach rewards, such as using a foam ball to stabilize their position under a blue artificial flower.
