"If we, and the rest of the back-boned animals were to disappear overnight, the rest of the world would get on pretty well.  But if the invertebrates were to disappear, the world's ecosystems - would collapse."  - Sir David Attenborough

Pollinators of the World!  You may be surprised as to who belongs to this exclusive club!  Just who pollinates what?  What do you like eating?  Aren't we human beings SO lucky?  Blessed?

ginsengpanaxillustration.jpg

Unfortunately, many pollinators have dwindled in population due to many causes, but mostly due to water, ground, and air pollution as well as wild lands clear-cut for cattle and industrial factories that have destroyed these species' food - plants.  Other animals, who are not pollinators, such as the Koala Bear, rely on various pollinators to pollinate eucalyptus.  When you see *ESL,* it means Endangered Species Listed - by United States of America.  Please keep keen eyes and ears regarding the status of Endangered Species Act and a certain web only-based encyclopedia that allows anyone to edit regarding specific animal futures.  Please make your voice heard right away when tampered with.  The Pollinators THANK YOU.
