    A New York cemetery in Ithaca was found to house 5.5 million ground-nesting bees beneath its soil, marking one of the largest bee aggregations ever documented. Scientists highlight the bees' role as crucial pollinators for apple orchards and other crops, noting they have thrived in the cemetery’s undisturbed sandy soil for over 100 years.
