How to join a wave: decision-making processes in shimmering behavior of Giant honeybees (Apis dorsata).
Shimmering is a collective defence behaviour in Giant honeybees (Apis dorsata) whereby individual bees flip their abdomen upwards, producing Mexican wave-like patterns on the nest surface. Bucket bridging has been used to explain the spread of information in a chain of members including three testab...
