    Honey Bee is not even in danger at the places where it comes from. People brought it to America and now it competes with local pollinators.

      Yep yep! The main bees in trouble are cute little bumble bees. Since some native plants work best with their native bees, it’s problematic that the sweet little dummies are struggling.

      But we just really love their cousins that produce candy in exchange for houses.
