- Himalayan honey hunting is an indigenous tradition practiced for 250 years by groups like the Rai people, who scale sheer cliffs using only bamboo ladders.
- Mad honey, harvested from high altitudes where bees feed on rhododendron flowers, contains neurotoxins that can cause vomiting, loss of consciousness, and in rare cases, death.
- Climate change and younger generations refusing to risk their lives have caused the population of honey hunters to greatly diminish, making the tradition close to dying out.
