Unlike most animals--and for reasons not entirely known--bumblebees cant move north to cope with warmer temperatures. They dont fare well in warmer climates because they evolved in cooler regions, away from the tropics. This makes them particularly vulnerable to changing climatic conditions.
To learn exactly how climate change is impacting...
