Bees no doubt have a very good biological implementation of some heuristic algorithm to the traveling salesman problem. It is extremely unlikely (as in aliens in area 51 unlikely -- wishful thinking unlikely) that they have a biological implementation of an exact algorithm. The Daily Galaxy article makes it seem as if the bees are solving the problem using an exact algorithm, and, moreover, that they are faster at doing so than a modern supercomputer, which is all complete wishful-thinking nonsense.
