We head to the quiet Mediterranean island of Giannutri, where researchers ran a rare experiment to understand how managed honey bee colonies affect wild bees. By temporarily closing the island’s honey bee hives, they watched nectar and pollen levels rebound almost immediately—giving wild bees the chance to take the lead in the pollination network. Dr. Lorenzo Pasquali shares the story from Giannutri which raises important questions about how we manage honey bees in sensitive landscapes if we want both wild and managed pollinators to thrive.
