科罗拉多州长官邸装上「蜜蜂旅馆」 全州已布设逾百处监测本土蜂类
科罗拉多州州长贾里德·波利斯近日在Denver的州长官邸欢迎新一批「住户」——官邸新安装了「蜜蜂旅馆」，这是一种为蜜蜂吸引并提供长期筑巢场所的人工结构。州长办公室称，蜜蜂旅馆是对科罗拉多州生态系统的长久投资，旨在保护都市地区的授粉者与该州环境。
波利斯表示：「蜜蜂们已经忙着采集花粉了。我非常高兴欢迎州长官邸的新住户。蜜蜂是勤劳的授粉者，在平衡科罗拉多州生态系统、支持本地生产者、保护我们的环境、让科罗拉多州的户外空间美丽繁荣等方面发挥着至关重要的作用——无论现在还是将来。我鼓励每一位科罗拉多州人多了解我们的授粉者，看看能做些什么来营造更健康的环境。」波利斯今年9月已采取行政行动支持和保护科罗拉多州授粉者。
据州长办公室，科罗拉多州公园与野生动物管理局（CPW）通过其无脊椎动物与稀有植物计划与员工、志愿者和学校合作，用蜜蜂旅馆监测全州的穴居蜂类；2026年CPW已在全州各地布设100多个蜜蜂旅馆，以更好了解不同物种的分布、依赖的资源与影响其健康与繁殖的环境压力。科罗拉多州有1000多种本土蜂类，约30%为穴居蜂类，包括壁蜂与切叶蜂等，它们利用中空茎秆、芦苇与木头孔洞筑巢繁育后代。此举承接2024年波利斯与州自然资源部发布的《科罗拉多本土授粉昆虫健康研究》，该研究被称为该州最详尽的授粉者健康报告，并呼吁保护处于即时风险的授粉者、恢复栖息地、降低农药风险与监测授粉者健康。
Colorado Governor's Residence Gets 'Bee Hotels' as State Deploys More Than 100 Statewide to Monitor Native Bees
Colorado Governor Jared Polis welcomed new pollinators to the Governor's Residence in Denver with the installation of "Bee Hotels," artificial structures designed to attract and provide long-term nesting for bees. The Governor's Office called bee hotels a lasting investment in Colorado's ecosystem to protect pollinators in Colorado's metro areas and protect the state's environment.
"The bees are already busy gathering pollen. I am very excited to welcome the newest residents to the Governor's Mansion," Polis said. "Bees are hardworking pollinators that play a vital role in balancing Colorado's ecosystem, supporting Colorado producers, protecting our environment, and keeping Colorado's outdoor spaces beautiful and flourishing now and in the future. I encourage every Coloradan to learn more about our pollinators and see how you can take action to foster a healthier environment." In September, Polis took executive action to support and protect Colorado pollinators.
According to the Governor's Office, Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) supports pollinators through its Invertebrate and Rare Plant Program, using bee hotels, in collaboration with CPW staff, volunteers and schools, to monitor cavity-nesting bees across the state; in 2026, CPW deployed more than 100 hotels to all corners of the state to better understand where species live, what resources they depend on, and what environmental stressors affect their health and reproduction. Colorado is home to more than 1,000 native bee species, and approximately 30 percent of them are cavity-nesting, including mason bees and leafcutter bees, which use hollow stems, reeds and holes in wood to build nests and raise their offspring, according to Butterfly Pavilion's conservation team. The effort builds on the 2024 Colorado Native Pollinating Insects Health Study, unveiled by Polis and the Department of Natural Resources, which called for protecting pollinators at immediate risk, restoring habitat, reducing pesticide risk and monitoring pollinator health.
