PERTH: Researchers have been attaching microchips to bees to track changes in their population in an attempt to help reverse the decline in their numbers.
The technology is currently being trialled at The Royal Botanical Gardens in Kew in the UK, and scientists working on the project hope that the technology will allow them to get a better insight into the threats that the bee population is facing.
The Bumblebee Conservation Trust says that bees are under threat in the UK because of changing farming methods that are reducing the number of wildflowers, meaning the insects are struggling to survive.
