Bumblebees Soar to the Forefront of Rapid Industry
In a groundbreaking new study, researchers have found that bumblebees can rapidly adapt to the presence of industry. The study looked at bumblebee populations in areas of England with industrial farming and found that the bumblebees were able to quickly adapt to their new environment, and even managed to disperse and recolonize the area. This is the first time researchers have found that bumblebees can adapt so quickly to industrialization, and the results could have major implications for conservation efforts.
