The Himalayan honey bee of the Apis Dorsata family is one of the largest in the world

Yesterday, 20:31

Taking care of her treasure, she builds hives on rocky ledges at heights of several hundred meters.

In the foothills of Annapurna, local residents have been mining "forest gold" since ancient times, like inveterate mountaineers, lighting fires at the foot of the cliff in advance.

Each mined "pancake" is one and a half meters in size and weighs several dozen kilos. The profession of a honey collector is passed down from generation to generation and even requires certain rituals.
