Caylin Jayde is IPN's Featured Artist of 2024.  This embroidered crewneck sweatshirt features the federally endangered Rusty Patched Bumble Bee.  Rusty Patched Bumble Bees were listed in 2017.

 This bee was once commonly distributed throughout the east and upper Midwest of the United States, but has declined from an estimated 87% of its historic range in recent years. The rusty-patched bumble bee was once an excellent pollinator of wildflowers, cranberries, and other important crops, including plum, apple, alfalfa and onion seed.*
