Probably, especially presently concerning improving survivability. Those
beekeepers that are now using Gods feral survivors are experiencing great
success with keeping bees now. If you believe there are not any wild bees in
nature I have a bridge in New York City to sell you if you could also afford
the shipping expense. Where mans pressure is limited wild bees are on the
comeback. Actually bees have already done the job of selection and breeding
for survivability, man as a whole just needs to learn to keep them
correctly.
