The humble little honey bee is one of the most important players in our

ecosystem. On this week’s show, we circle the globe in pursuit of a honey

of a tale. We begin right here in our own backyard at the Audubon Zoo.

While more exotic creatures may be what draw the crowds, both native and

European honey bees can be found bumbling around the zoo's grounds. Curator

Dominique Fleitas gives us a tour of the Pollinator Garden and shows us the

hives she helps maintain in the Louisiana Swamp Exhibit.
