Training and usage of detection dogs to better understand bumble bee nesting habitat: Challenges and opportunities.
Bumble bees are among the most imperiled pollinators. However, habitat use, especially nest site selection, remains relatively unknown. Methods to locate nests are invaluable to better understand habitat requirements and monitor wild populations. Building on prior study findings, we report constrain...
