Save the bees (especially native ones)!! Today, we’re talking about the Bell Bowl Prairie, and how a little swatch of land could cause so much chaos! In addition to our round table about land management and endangered species in crisis, CJ features a friendly little fella known as the rusty-patched bumblebee and Brittany tells us about a pretty ‘crappy’ civilian science initiative! If you’d like to learn more about Bell Bowl Prairie or how to save it, make sure to visit www.savebellbowlprairie.org, and if you're an Illinois resident make sure to reach out to your State representative. Let’s save the Bell Bowl Prairie!
