00:00In a shocking twist of nature's tale, a bizarre phenomenon has emerged.
00:04Zombie bees.
00:07Researchers stumbled upon this chilling discovery when they noticed bees exhibiting strange behavior,
00:12flying aimlessly, and roaming around like lost souls.
00:17The culprit?
00:18A sinister bacterium called Nosema.
00:22The scene unfolded in the lush fields of California, USA, in 2016,
00:27where beekeepers reported entire colonies acting like the undead, disoriented, and lethargic.
00:34Imagine a swarm of bees, usually industrious and organized, now flitting about,
00:40resembling a horror movie cast gone rogue.
00:43It's a comedy of errors as these bees lose their sense of direction,
00:47forgetting their hives, and becoming easy prey for predators.
00:51But the horror doesn't stop there.
00:54Fast forward to 2019, and we shift gears to the woodlands of the UK, where a second event unraveled.
01:01This time, a fungal outbreak known as Ascosphera apis,
01:06turned honeybees into fuzzy little zombies, leaving them unable to care for their young.
01:12Hives went silent, reminiscent of a ghost town, as these once-bustling colonies were decimated overnight.
01:19Nature's dark humor left us laughing and crying, as the zombie apocalypse unfolded right before our eyes.
