My position first allowed me to work in the mottled duskywing (<em>Erynnis martialis<\/em> aka \u2018MODU\u2019) lab at Cambridge Butterfly Conservatory. This butterfly recovery effort is largely collaborative with many partners contributing to the recovery team. I was also given the opportunity to work in WPC\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/fr\/bumble-bee-conservation-lab\/\">bumble bee conservation breeding lab<\/a> where the yellow-banded bumble bee (<em>Bourdon terricola<\/em>) is the species of interest. Working in both labs offered unique and fascinating experiences, each providing a window into the world of pollinators. When I first joined the bumble bee lab, I found myself comparing everything I did and learned to the mottled duskywing lab. While these labs share a common thread of insect study, it shouldn\u2019t be surprising that they are very different. From egg laying to caring for adult insects, each life stage has a different protocol to suit their respective needs.<\/p>\n<p>At the onset of each season, both laboratories collect their respective insects and relocate them to the controlled lab environment. Here, they are introduced to conditions intended to mimic their natural habitats as closely as possible. Using our MODU butterflies as an example, we ensure the butterflies have access to New Jersey Tea (<em>Ceanothus americanus<\/em>) \u2013 the host plant for this species \u2013 as well as provide sugar water and electrolytes. Alternatively, our bumble bee residents enjoy a steady supply of nectar and pollen, fostering their reproduction and survival needs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lq2jgaew-d435990efa97fafcd00abf629f7d1bdf'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h4><em>Husbandry<\/em><\/h4>\n<p>In the MODU lab, our responsibilities revolved around processing each of the eggs and caring for and nurturing the caterpillars. Unlike some species where parental care is prominent, butterflies lay their eggs and depart. It thus falls upon our shoulders to ensure that within our lab setting the growing caterpillars are getting a constant supply of food and water.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, the bumble bee lab presented a unique dynamic due to the inherently social nature of these insects. Here, our focus shifted from caring for each individual to the management of entire colonies. Within these bustling communities, the queen and her loyal worker bees assume the role of nurturers, attentively caring for their offspring during the larval stage. At the peak of the season, some colonies grew to accommodate over 200 worker bees and an equally impressive number of egg cells which house the growing larvae. This distinctive social structure marked the most pronounced contrast between the two labs. We must carefully consider the queen, her workers, and, as the season progresses, the emergence of male bees and gynes (which will eventually become new queens the following spring).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_4'  class='avia-section av-3k3wwol-0a7dca19923d054a49c90d8f14114928 main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-15  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-44725'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div  class='flex_column av-2vkqhx1-301372304fc35f28f1f6fe220e9fc180 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-16  el_before_av_one_half  avia-builder-el-first  first flex_column_div'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lq2jkn4w-cddb933c868a699b45ff281a7264a9b6\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lq2jkn4w-cddb933c868a699b45ff281a7264a9b6 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lq2jkn4w-cddb933c868a699b45ff281a7264a9b6 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lq2jkn4w-cddb933c868a699b45ff281a7264a9b6 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-17  avia-builder-el-no-sibling'   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-44733 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-44733 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/w-caterpillar.jpg' alt='' title='w-caterpillar'  height=\"400\" width=\"400\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-2gk0mb9-e0060069efc24c22d0b399b38019f34a av_one_half  avia-builder-el-18  el_after_av_one_half  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-833s5x-c2f4593d041aed37f15eeea72921299c\">\n.avia-image-container.av-833s5x-c2f4593d041aed37f15eeea72921299c img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-833s5x-c2f4593d041aed37f15eeea72921299c .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-833s5x-c2f4593d041aed37f15eeea72921299c av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-19  avia-builder-el-no-sibling'   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-44729 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-44729 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/W-Terricola.jpg' alt='' title='W-Terricola'  height=\"400\" width=\"400\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='after_section_4'  class='main_color av_default_container_wrap container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-44725'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lq2jn3xg-479aecd852a5a6507485a569026a67a9'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>A mottled duskywing caterpillar feeding from New Jersey tea.

In the case of butterflies, our aim was to facilitate successful mating to induce egg-laying during the current season. This process was essential to our research, as it allowed us to gather valuable data for the ongoing season. Conversely, with gynes \u2013 the potential future queens among bumble bees \u2013 the mating process followed a different timeline and purpose. Late in the season, these gynes would engage in mating, but this would not lead to immediate reproduction. Instead, they undergo an overwintering phase. When they emerge in the spring, they will build their own colony and begin the egg-laying process.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_5'  class='avia-section av-1kux8ad-3cf3e079d2742d30afa42c6981426636 main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-22  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-44725'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div  class='flex_column av-10dwqj9-2e790cea4de14fa5e0c972854dd97e74 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-23  el_before_av_one_half  avia-builder-el-first  first flex_column_div'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lq2jq4wb-16a4382a86bb84cfc9acdc5407829b8a\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lq2jq4wb-16a4382a86bb84cfc9acdc5407829b8a img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lq2jq4wb-16a4382a86bb84cfc9acdc5407829b8a .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lq2jq4wb-16a4382a86bb84cfc9acdc5407829b8a av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-24  avia-builder-el-no-sibling'   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-44735 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-44735 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/w-mate-butterfly.jpg' alt='' title='w-mate-butterfly'  height=\"400\" width=\"400\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div  class='flex_column av-j2bbit-bc46ef31117f3b2cb48b2f193a58f872 av_one_half  avia-builder-el-25  el_after_av_one_half  avia-builder-el-last  flex_column_div'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lq2jqr3i-19ca588da09b891f5c27f353346d2c7e\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lq2jqr3i-19ca588da09b891f5c27f353346d2c7e img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lq2jqr3i-19ca588da09b891f5c27f353346d2c7e .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lq2jqr3i-19ca588da09b891f5c27f353346d2c7e av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-26  avia-builder-el-no-sibling'   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-44736 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-44736 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/Mate-bee.jpg' alt='' title='Mate-bee'  height=\"400\" width=\"400\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='after_section_5'  class='main_color av_default_container_wrap container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-44725'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lq2jsxer-82a6f12149add54ef40ef8ff65d5a012'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><em>A pair of mottled duskywing butterflies undergoing copulation.

As such, our protocols are always evolving, adapting and being refined as we unveil fresh insights and more effective methods for rearing these insects. This commitment to adaptability and the pursuit of cutting-edge practices underscores our dedication to not only understanding but also safeguarding the fragile ecosystems and populations these insects contribute to.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the pronounced disparities between our butterfly and bumble bee research, there exists a notable common ground as well. Both of these captivating insect studies are a part of our Native Pollinator Initiative, unified by the shared objective of advancing conservation efforts for these species through innovative and progressive approaches.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><!-- close content main div --><\/div><\/div><div id='av_section_6'  class='avia-section av-4wc2z91-b849d715acb262e96c59755b8fd470b0 main_color avia-section-default avia-no-border-styling  avia-builder-el-28  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_section  blog-inner avia-bg-style-scroll container_wrap fullsize'  ><div class='container av-section-cont-open' ><div class='template-page content  av-content-full alpha units'><div class='post-entry post-entry-type-page post-entry-44725'><div class='entry-content-wrapper clearfix'>\n<div  class='flex_column av-4cserdh-70623b26a8e5168e40659ca1a352df3b av_one_full  avia-builder-el-29  avia-builder-el-no-sibling  author-section first flex_column_div'     ><section  class='av_textblock_section av-ljhd0ctf-39b59e396e1c4715d5fd8663d0ea7749'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">Ameera Saleh<\/h3>\n<p>Ameera is a Carleton University and Niagara College graduate where she studied ecosystem restoration.
