How bees can keep the peace between elephants and humans
Summary
First, l thought why bees could keep a peace between elephants and humans and after reading, the story was a really great story.

We must have heard stories that for protecting elephants, it’s important to stop the ivory trade. However, when the human population continues increasing, people continue using lands and many resources, elephants come to their spaces to search for food and water by breaking fences. Elephants trample and eat your crops which you planted hard and food in stores.

In this human-elephant conflict, the speaker who is a zoologist knew about a theory that African elephants and African bees wouldn’t interact at all. She thought that if there are bees on the fences that elephants break always, elephants must be unable to come there. Elephants are really smart animals and they must remember that these are dangerous areas.
In fact, it halved the cost of the fence because elephants don’t come there. The speaker’s ideas are really great.
Dummy beehive is made, for not to get close, piping bee sounds, for raising bees, planting flowers, for people getting money, selling honey, making oils lip balms and baskets that are made from those plant and so on. If elephants brake fences, they don’t eat plants because in there, plants which they don’t want to eat are planted now.
When people afford to eat, they can be tolerant, and have empathy. It can move from a state of conflict with elephants to true coexistence.
