Bees are truly endangered, and with them, the entire food chain, the whole ecosystem.

But that law... Just goes to show how demented it is to have legal systems as we do.

Great, now Fish & Wildlife is gonna fuck up your day if you accidentally kill a bee. They don't even need warrants.

The DNR will be inspecting bee hives.

Noteworthy: This is possible because the law, as written, is rubbish. California being California.
