Bee Brood and Honey
Both the honey and the brood of Dwarf Honeybees Apis florea and Giant Honeybees Apis dorsata is consumed in Cambodia. Only a few years ago they were a common sight at local markets during the dry season; but not anymore.
An increased demand--and no counter-measures by governmental authorities to safeguard honeybees--guarantees their demise. One rarely sees brood and honey in the market these days--a sure sign that there aren't many bees left.
