BLM Horse Populations / Endangered Bumble Bee / Harriet Tubman National Historical Park / Montana Legislative Bills





Missoulian: Rusty patched bumblebee declared endangered
Rusty Patched Bumble Bee (Bombus affinis)
“As pollinators, rusty patched bumble bees contribute to our food security and the healthy functioning of our ecosystems. Bumble bees are keystone species in most ecosystems, necessary not only for native wildflower reproduction, but also for creating seeds and fruits that feed wildlife as diverse as songbirds and grizzly bears.”


“The new park commemorates the work of the fearless Underground Railroad conductor during her later years in life, when she was an active proponent of womens’ suffrage and other causes. The park is located at the site where Tubman lived and worshiped in Auburn, New York, caring for family members and other formerly enslaved people seeking safe haven in the North.”
