A bumblebee (or bumble bee, bumble-bee, or humble-bee) is any of over 250 species in the genus Bombus, part of Apidae, one of the bee families. This genus is the only extant group in the tribe Bombini, though a few extinct related genera (e.g., Calyptapis) are known from fossils.
Honey bees live in hives with thousands of other bees containing anywhere from 20,000 to 80,000 members. Each colony has one queen , and they protect and follow her.
