      Hi Angie,
      As well as doing my own research i have to review other peoples research that has been done in the past so we can improve things. I found that some of the extinction models that were made a few years ago have some biological assumptions in them that mean they are not as good as we thought. This is important because people might have been using this model to help save bees and then be doing the wrong thing.
      I am now working on a new version of the model so we can make it better and hopefully help bees.
