Over 200,000 speciesβincluding not just bees, but also thousands of other insects, birds, and small mammalsβplay a vital role in pollinating our food supply. You can learn about some of them in our Big Bugs walkthrough exhibit. #PollinatorWeek
It wouldn`t be #PollinatorWeek without highlighting one of natureβs most unexpected pollinators: lemurs! πΏπ¦ In Madagascar, lemurs help traveler`s palm trees thrive by spreading pollen that gets on their dense fur from feeding on their flowers.
Celebrating #PollinatorWeek with a shoutout to our beautiful butterflies! These gorgeous gliders not only add charm to our gardens but also act as effective pollinators alongside bees. You can witness them at work during your next visit at Butterflies & Big Bugs π¦
