Resumen:
Peter Carruthers (2004, 2007, 2009) argues that bees have conceptual thoughts because they satisfy criteria that he believes are necessary and jointly sufficient for concept possession. In this paper I argue that Carruthers' criteria are not sufficient, since there is a further criterion that concerns the intensionality of conceptual thought which is necessary for concept possession.
