Continuous Radar Tracking Illustrates the Development of Multi-destination Routes of Bumblebees

Animals that visit multiple foraging sites face a problem, analogous to the Travelling Salesman Problem, of finding an efficient route. We explored bumblebees’ route development on an array of five artificial flowers in which minimising travel distances between individual feeders conflicted with min...
