Besides beekeepers, and other jobs where work relates to bees, these important creatures go unnoticed. Including bees “insect pollinators merit…

In general, species extinction primarily disrupts the food chain, leaving the ecosystem at greater risk for further biodiversity loss. While natural disasters and extreme ecosystems are naturally occurring,…

Wild animals are no different than civilized humans in that we live by one simple rule: eat or be eaten. We find the will to survive by any means. Insects use their camouflage abilities, lions their speed, and men their strength. Women, however, use their cunningness to survive.
