How do some birds, turtles, and insects possess navigational abilities that rival the best manmade naviagational technologies? Who or what taught the honey bee its dance, or its hive mates how to read the complex message of the dance? How do blind mound-building termites master passive heating and cooling strategies that dazzle skilled human architects?
