There are about 20,000 species, or kinds of bees. Bees live everywhere in the world except on high mountains, in the Arctic and Antarctic, and on some small islands in the ocean.

Some bees are as small as 0.08 inch (2 millimeters). Some bees are as big as 1.6 inches (4 centimeters). Bees come in many colors—black, gray, yellow, red, green, or blue. Most bees live alone. They are called solitary bees. Some bees live in groups called colonies. They are social bees.

Killer bees are across between African honey bees and European honey bees, the main kind of honey bee in the United States. Researchers brought African bees to South America. The bees escaped in the 1970s and mated with European honey bees. The killer bees they produced will attack in swarms. They will sting and kill large animals and people.

Killer bees spread north into Central America and the southern United States. Beekeepers worry that the killer bees could harm their honey bees and threaten the important work that honey bees do.

This is Cassa. He is the male chimpanzee that tended quiet and loner. Cassa could be recognized by seeing the color of his silvery hair, slender body and non symmetrical mouth.

This one is Campo, a female chimpanzee. She is the wife of Cassa and mother of Monica. Campo is friendly enough with humankind. Don’t extend the hands to Campo because she will extend her hands too. That means she is asking for food. Campo could be recognized from her thin arms hair, with the scar on left ears under the left eyes and nostrils.

As the day increases the two of them will not easily be found because they hide on the tamarind tree. Try to find them beyond the tree.
