A semi-truck carrying 250 million bees overturned in Washington state, causing a major highway closure. However, local beekeepers swiftly responded, successfully recovering and restoring most of the hives. Authorities expect the bees to return to their hives within 48 hours, and the roadway to reopen Saturday. The cause of the accident remains unknown, and the bees' final destination is still being determined. Despite the incident, bee experts say most bees will survive.
