**SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER** One man's quest to save the
bumblebee... Dave Goulson has always been obsessed with wildlife,
from his childhood menagerie of exotic pets and dabbling in
experimental taxidermy to his groundbreaking research into the
mysterious ways of the bumblebee and his mission to protect our
rarest bees. Once commonly found in the marshes of Kent, the
short-haired bumblebee is now extinct in the UK, but still exists
in the wilds of New Zealand, descended from a few queen bees
shipped over in the nineteenth century. A Sting in the Tale tells
the story of Goulson's passionate drive to reintroduce it to its
native land and contains groundbreaking research into these curious
creatures, history's relationship with the bumblebee, the
disastrous effects intensive farming has had on our bee populations
and the potential dangers if we are to continue down this path.
