It's obvious that both ants and bees show intelligent traits and characteristics and have some similarities (especially with their community type behaviors), but it's clear that Bees are more intelligent and useful. When is the last time you enjoyed some delicious ant honey or ant wax (used as candles, in beauty supplies, etc...)?

History shows that men of intelligence have kept bees to study and sustain life with their sweet sweet honey, while the same annals of history also show that mostly little children keep ant farms to torture and kill ants.
