As an employee of Alberta Farm Animal Care, animal welfare is something that is always very high on my radar, so when I became a Beekeeper this past year, that didn’t change. Now, as you are reading this, you are probably thinking one of three things:
1. Bees are insects- who cares?
2. I hate bees!
OR
3. Of course, bee welfare is important; bees are vital to the ecosystem!
