Australia's native bee numbers remain a mystery, scientists say

Original: Are Australia’s native bees thriving or declining? We don’t know but can find out # NativeBees # Bees # Australia # Biod

Scientists and conservation commentators are highlighting that Australia's native bee populations are poorly monitored, with no clear picture of whether the species are thriving or declining. They argue that with better surveying and citizen science, the gap in knowledge could be closed, helping protect pollinators that support crops and wild plants.

Why now: Growing concern over pollinator decline and habitat loss has put native bee conservation back in the spotlight.
