Every year, many tourists take a trip to African countries to see the elephants. Although some people still hunt elephants for their ivory, others work hard to protect them. Thanks to them, the number of African elephants in countries like Kenya is growing. In Kenya’s popular National Park, the number of elephants had grown from around 6,000 to almost 15,000 by 2021. However, this was not good news for farmers living near the park. Elephants often ate and walked on crops (农作物). This made the farmers angry. But later, the group, Save the Elephants, found a smart way to keep elephants away from farms --using bees. Elephants are afraid of the sound of bees, so when they walk near the crops and touch the beehive fences (蜂巢围栏), the loud noises can make them leave. A study shows that this way can stop elephants from walking into farms most of the time. These beehive fences can do more than just keep elephants away. They also bring other good things to local communities. Bees help with pollination. This can help crops grow better. And farmers can get honey from the beehives and sell honey to make some money.
