INDONESIA - A bee many experts thought was extinct has been rediscovered in Indonesia.

The world's largest bee is back after nine years of believed extinction. Wallace's Giant Bee is roughly the size of a human thumb and has a two-and-a-half-inch wingspan.

Even though it's the largest, the giant bee is actually one of the least dangerous.
