As many conservation programs are limited by many elements (time, funding, and personnel), community science programs are invaluable. Launched in 2014, Bumble Bee Watch (BBW) is a North American community science initiative that is a collaborative project between many partners. The platform allows users to submit photos of bumble bees (via browser or an app), guides them through an identification tool to help them identify the species of the individual, and then users\u2019 submissions are verified by experts. Not only is the initiative a great way to get participants in nature interacting with the big fuzzy pollinators, but it also provides critical monitoring data of bumble bees across North America.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How does the data collected by Bumble Bee Watch help conservation?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-la2z9z97-359c97eb171e453b8b6f9f1bb8897d5a\">\n.avia-image-container.av-la2z9z97-359c97eb171e453b8b6f9f1bb8897d5a img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-la2z9z97-359c97eb171e453b8b6f9f1bb8897d5a .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-la2z9z97-359c97eb171e453b8b6f9f1bb8897d5a av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-3  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-33864 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-33864 avia_image ' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/BBW-submission-map-2021-300x270.png' alt='' title='BBW submission map 2021'  height=\"270\" width=\"300\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><section  class='av_textblock_section av-la2zajwc-ee03232185bfde5f783df419b9aded77 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>Map of Bumble Bee Watch submissions (April, 2021)<br \/> <\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Increases survey coverage<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Year to year, WPC&#8217;s Bumble Bee Recovery Program ranges from groups of one to three small field crews that conduct our annual spring queen bumble bee surveys across Ontario.
