Still Waters Posted February 12, 2014 #1 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Bumblebees cannot survive the freezing conditions of Mt. Everest's peak. But researchers based at the University of California, Berkley simulated the low oxygen and low air density conditions of such high elevations to determine the limits of the bumblebee's flight capacity, and found the bees were capable of staying afloat at remarkably inhospitable elevations. http://news.discover...rest-140206.htm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
