#savewildbees — Public Fediverse posts

@MikeTeeVee why did you tag this as #GoodNews when the article is mainly about the scientific evidence of honeybee risks to wild bee populations?

As the article states, IUCN classifies honeybees as a species of least concern for conservation.

Managed honeybees are livestock.

I find it super interesting that the responses on the quiz question 1 is 50 % true, 50 false.

"Question 1: Save the bees! Our honeybees are endangered and going extinct!"

Answer False!

Beekeepers face many challenges, but the European honeybee, Apis mellifera, is not endangered. Rather, many wild bee species are under threat due to habitat loss, chemicalization of the environment, and climate change.

Did you know there are an estimated 20,000 species of bees?

If you see campaigns to #SavetheBees, make sure they are talking about #WildBees.

#HoneyBee hives are beneficial to livelihoods and provide #pollination to crops, but they are livestock. They don't need to be "saved" from extinction.

In fact, #EuropeanHoneyBee (Apis mellifera, the most common #honeybee) populations have been growing in recent years.
