@Dhmspector@ai6yr "Meanwhile, the American bumblebee, once the most commonly observed bumblebee in the U.S., has suffered an 89% drop in abundance and vanished from at least eight states over the past two decades, according to a 2021 petitionfiled by the Center for Biological Diversity and a group of Albany Law School students arguing that the American bumblebee should be listed as an endangered species." Bumblebees still in Wisconsin for now. #bumblebee#bumblebees
@Dhmspector Ah, very good article. The reliance of almonds on nearly every beehive in the country is folly. I don't doubt some kind of organized crime for the thefts, though lower scale (ie. it's a band of unscrupulous beekeepers, for sure....)
