Nah bees are cool. The colony collapse stuff stabilized awhile back, partially through people managing more hives.

Bees are super interesting, there's this podcast episode (of EconTalk) about them I've listened to like three times. Thinking about trying to get into it with my brother next year.
Just remember that your grandfather is deathly allergic to bee stings.

I've genuinely thought about the old "winning the lottery" thing... and I would definitely buy up a load of separate acres of land in random spots around my county, fence them off with those really tall security fences, and give the gate keys to the local Beekeeper Association.

Badgers.
Badgers don't give a f honeycomb.

Well, when compared to a band like Soundgarden where not one member is less than 6', I wouldn't be surprised. Still, a great band no matter what their height. Break on through!
