The Mighty Beelephant

An experiment has proven that elephants are scared of bees. Scientists put up speakers with the sound of bees buzzing playing to stop the mammals munching on the crops. The ellies legged it straight away. It's thought they linked the buzzing with the painful stings that bees can deliver and decided to run away. This may affect their behaviour in the future, though. But it might not take them long to realise it's a trick, as they are very clever animals.

Please comment.
Thank you.
