In this episode we are joined by Vikki Rose and George Allen, PhD students from the University of Reading. Their expertise in Apoidea Taxonomy (Bees) and Lepidoptera (Butterflies and Moths) provides an insightful discussion into the important and varied role of pollinators in our ecosystems, to highlighting the challenges affecting pollinator populations and the resulting consequences. We explore the complex relationship between the (often) small but mighty creatures, humans, and the environment.
