Spilled bees on highway a honey of a mess
A truck carrying 12 million honeybees hit a wall on a highway ramp, dumping its load across the pavement shortly before the evening rush hour.
bq. The truck was carrying 480 bee colonies, each with 25,000 insects, to California to pollinate the state's almond crop when it struck the wall Wednesday afternoon.
Most people don't know that if it wasn't for bees, we would have very little to eat. The majority of our crops depend on bees for pollination and no pollination -- no seeds for the next crop.
