Galicia: the last corner of Europe with wild honey bees
The study, “Semi-natural habitats promote winter survival of wild-living honeybees in an agricultural landscape” by Benjamin Rutschmann and Patrick Kohl, two doctoral students at the JMU Chair of Animal Ecology and Tropical Biology, was published last month in the journal Biological Conservation. Their research shows that there are wild honeybees living and thriving in the Galicia region in the northwest of Spain.
