Animal mathematician
Every morning, when the sun rises to an angle of 30 degrees with the horizon, the "reconnaissance bees" among bees fly out of the hive to find the source of nectar, and report the orientation, distance and quantity of nectar with a unique "dance language" after returning. So the queen bee sent worker bees to collect honey. Strangely, the queen bee's "fuzzy mathematics" is quite accurate, and there are not many worker bees sent, just enough to eat, to ensure that they return to their nests to make honey.

Even more amazing is the "architect" of bees-worker bees. The nest they built is a strict hexagonal cylinder-a flat hexagonal opening at one end and a closed hexagonal cone at the other end, which consists of three identical diamonds. Interestingly, no matter what kind of beehive, all obtuse angles of the rhombus forming the chassis are equal to 109 degrees 28 minutes, and all acute angles are equal to 70 degrees 32 minutes. This data is exactly the same as that confirmed by mathematicians that "the largest diamond-shaped container needs the least materials".
