# SAFA-342222A
Bumblebees aren’t just fuzzy insects that make honey; they perform tasks vital to life on Earth. As they fly from flower to flower collecting pollen and nectar, some of the pollen rubs off their legs and onto the flowers, thereby cross-pollinating and ensuring the fruit grows.
History: Bees don’t leave normal fossils behind because their exoskeleton isn’t nearly as long lasting as bones. However, like other insects, ancient bees could become trapped in amber, preserving their bodies for scientists to discover later. And discover they did- Scientists have determined the bees appeared during the Cretaceous period, the age of T-rex.
