ok, gracias Carolina!
yep, unfortunately even when people have been rearing these bees for centuries, now they are struggling for surviving. Mostly because of deforestation and competition with Honey bees, wich are not native from this continent.
Juan, lo siento mucho. Ya te puse esta en la misión, pero entonces por favor escribe a support@projectnoah.org contándoles tu problema, de pronto es el web browser o algo así, ellos ya te sabrán ayudar :)
With the dwindling Bee population more of Bees reared in captivity we have the better. We have to find a way of saving the Bees!
Sigo sin poder guardarlas en la mision de polinizadores...
