Bees, along with other pollinators such as butterflies, bats, and hummingbirds, are increasingly under threat from human activities. Pollination is a crucial process for the survival of our ecosystems. Almost 90% of the world’s flowering plants rely partially or completely on animal pollination. This includes more than 75% of the world’s food crops and 35% of the world’s agricultural land. Pollinators not only contribute directly to food security, but are also vital for biodiversity conservation
