LANSING
Meet former K-9 Maple. She made a big career switch earlier this year – from a human remains detection dog to a beekeeper at Michigan State University’s Pollinator Performance Center.
The friendly brown-andwhite dog, with a long tongue that hangs out of her mouth, dons her own beekeeping suit and uses her powerful nose to sniff out danger.
