Because bees are very interesting and they produce such large amounts of honey.

A colony of bees consists of three castes of bee:

A large number of female workers and a number of male drones ranging from thousands in a strong hive in the spring, although it could be a lot less in the very cold season.

The queen is the only sexually mature female in the hive and all of the female worker bees and male drones are her offspring/babies.

The Queen can actually live for anything up to 3 years and in that time can produce millions of eggs; a Queen could produce 2,000 eggs in just one day.

The Queen is also fed larger amounts of Royal Jelly then other normal worker bees, she needs the energy.
