I wonder if some of these newly discovered threatened species are just weird mutations that happen ever so often and when we see them again we think we spotted the previously discovered threatened species that we had thought went extinct. The really need to get good dna off these things.

If a bee is in the woods but you are not looking for it, does it exist?

I’d be blue too, if there were murder hornets on the way.

... thought to have gone extinct shortly after it was discovered.

LOL The stupid drips like blue bee honey from that statement.

No doubt the researchers who came to that conclusion are heavily invested in GlobalClimateWarmingChange.

"will answer a key question for the critically threatened bee: is it to be, or not to be?"

This article about whether the Blue Bee is to be or not to be would be perfect for the Babylon Bee.

Great. Science kills one more bee just to take its picture.

The bee is a hyper-local species that likely evolved around an isolated patch of sand dunes along the central Florida ridge

Sounds like an evolutionary dead end, kind of like experts who know more and more about less and less until they know absolutely everything about nothing at all.

The researchers probably had to comb the forest.
I'm glad they didn't experience the sting of failure.
Okay, I'll stop now.

All industry in Florida must be shut down now!

And BLM must take full possession of the state of Florida for this precious endangered species’ sake!
