How the lives of wild honey bees offer vital lessons for saving the world’s managed
bee colonies
Humans have kept honey bees in hives for millennia, yet only in recent decades have
biologists begun to investigate how these industrious insects live in the wild. The
Lives of Bees is Thomas Seeley’s captivating story of what scientists are learning
about the behavior, social life, and survival strategies of honey bees living outside
the beekeeper’s hive - and how wild honey bees may hold the key to reversing the
alarming die-off of the planet’s managed honey bee populations.
Seeley, a world authority on honey bees, sheds light on why wild honey bees are still
thriving while those living in managed colonies are in crisis. Drawing on the latest
science, as well as insights from his own pioneering fieldwork, he describes in
extraordinary detail how honey bees live in nature and reveals how this differs
significantly from their lives under the management of beekeepers. Seeley presents an
entirely new approach to beekeeping - Darwinian Beekeeping - which enables honey bees
to use the toolkit of survival skills their species has acquired over the past 30
million years, and to evolve solutions to the new challenges they face today. He
tells beekeepers how to use the principles of natural selection to guide their
practices, and he offers a new vision of how beekeeping can better align with the
natural habits of honey bees.
Engaging and deeply personal, The Lives of Bees reveals how we can become better
custodians of honey bees and make use of their resources in ways that enrich their
lives, as well as our own.
