A beekeeper in Turkey has come across a discovery thanks to a group of honey-stealing bears. The hobbyist beekeeper is Mr Ibrahim Sedef, who lives in the Black Sea coastal town of Trabzon, northeast of the capital Ankara. For many years, he has gone to great lengths to prevent bears from stealing the honey his bees make. In so doing, he has discovered that the bears have a particular penchant for the best quality, most expensive honey. Mr Sedef had struggled to keep the intruders and their sweet teeth away from his beehives. However, the bears evaded his metal cages and protective storage houses, and did not fall for Mr Sedef's attempts to use apples and other fruit as a decoy.

由于一群偷蜜的熊，土耳其一位养蜂人有了一个新发现。爱好养蜂的是易卜拉欣·塞德夫先生，他住在黑海沿岸城市特拉布宗，首都安卡拉东北部。多年来，他竭尽全力防止熊偷走蜜蜂酿的蜂蜜。在这样做的过程中，他发现熊特别喜欢质量最好、价格最贵的蜂蜜。塞德夫先生一直努力让入侵者和他们的甜食远离他的蜂箱。然而，这些熊躲开了他的金属笼子和保护性的储藏室，并没有被塞德夫先生试图用苹果和其他水果作为诱饵的行为所吸引。

Mr Sedef told reporters that the bears have cost him over $10,000 in the past three years. During this time, he set up cameras to find out more about their tastes. He enticed the bears with four different bowls of goodies. Three bowls contained various types and quality of honey and one had cherry jam. Time after time, the bears made a beeline for the most expensive honey. They continually opted for the premium Anzer honey, which is believed to be the most expensive in the world. It is produced from the nectar of 90 flowers that only grow in the mountains of the Anzer plateau. It is said to have a whole host of medicinal and curative powers. Despite his financial losses, Sedef said he has grown to love the bears.

赛德夫告诉记者，在过去三年里，这些熊让他损失了1万多美元。在这段时间里，他设置了摄像头来了解他们的口味。他用四碗不同的糖果引诱熊。三个碗里装着各种各样的优质蜂蜜，一个碗里有樱桃酱。一次又一次，熊们直奔最昂贵的蜂蜜。他们不断地选择优质的安泽蜂蜜，这被认为是世界上最贵的。它是由90朵只生长在安泽高原山区的花蜜制成的。据说它有很多药用和治疗的功效。塞德夫说，尽管经济上有损失，但他已经开始喜欢熊了。
