Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -can bumble bees play? UK researchers say they can. In a first-ever study conducted by researchers at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL), bumble bees were caught interacting with rolling balls despite having no incentive to do so-proving that insects can engage in play behavior like dogs or cats.

Detailed explanation-2: -New research published in the journal Animal Behaviour suggests that bumblebees seem to enjoy rolling around wooden balls, without being trained or receiving rewards-presumably just because it’s fun.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bumble bees are important pollinators of wild flowering plants and agricultural crops. They are able to fly in cooler temperatures and lower light levels than many other bees, making them excellent pollinators-especially at higher elevations and latitudes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Honeybees face the problem of learning to recognize and handle flowers with a useful set of predispositions and programs: they recognize flower-like targets innately, land on them, and explore them and if they provide food, they learn about them. Bees learn both to recognize and to handle flowers.
