Ok, i am a bee keeper and have been following this AHB (africainized honey
bee) thing for the past few years...
They are in southern CA, arizona, NM and Texas for sure. They have NOT
migrated north very far because of climate reasons.  These bees migrated
in south amercia the same distance S as they have in north america the
same distance north. Got it?

cheers
