National GeographicWe’ve always known bees were smart. Now, science suggests they may be geniuses. 🐝 In the cover story of our new May issue—out now—we reveal the remarkable minds of the world’s most important pollinators. Emerging research shows that bees can solve complex problems, associate colors with rewards, and navigate ever‑changing landscapes. That breadth of intelligence is rare in the animal kingdom—and it may be key to their survival. Read the story at the 🔗 in bio. Elsewhere in the issue, we travel to South Sudan for a stunning and rare view of the world’s largest animal migration. We explore the ruins of the ancient Indus Valley metropolis of Mohenjo Daro, a city that has remained largely unexplored for centuries—until now. And we join researchers on a globe‑spanning journey to visit isolated communities, in a quest that could upend medical science. If this sparked your curiosity, there’s more waiting—subscribe to Nat Geo at the 🔗 in bio.
