Bee Check
A
This
hive
of
western
honeybees
has
been
in
the
park
since
2012
and
grown
enormously,
starting
out
as
a
swarm
of
bees.
The
size
of
a
basketball
bees
are
extremely
important
to
all
ecosystems
because
they
pollinate
plants
so
that
they
can
reproduce
they
are
responsible
for
pollinating
about
a
third
of
our
agricultural
products,
including
apples.
All
kinds
of
berries,
tomatoes,
sugarcane
and
much
much
more
bee
populations
are
in
peril,
though
declining
by
45,
from
2012
and
2013,
mainly
because
of
habitat
loss
and
pesticide
toxicity.
