Many bees are opportunistic foragers and will gather pollen from a variety of plants, while others are oligolectic, gathering pollen from only one or a few types of plant. A small number of plants produce nutritious floral oils rather than pollen, which are gathered and used by oligolectic bees. One small subgroup of stingless bees, called „vulture bees‟, is specialized to feed on carrion, and these are the only bees that do not use plant products as food.

Once upon a time, in a faraway jungle, there was a lion baby whose mother died after he was born. The lion baby was weak without the protection of his mother, hungry and cold. He asked for help with his last strength. Meanwhile, a group of goats came across the baby lion. The goat mother heard the baby lion‟s cry. She felt pity to see a weak lion baby.

Having the warmth of affection that he needed, the lion baby did not want to part with the mother goat. He continued to follow anywhere the mother goat went.
