Bumblebee pie?

Question

Someone has requested a recipe for bumblebee pie, a three berry pie. Shockingly, another user posted a recipe from an outside source with real bumblebees that her family has made for years. Considering the state of the honey bee worldwide with colony collapse disorder, I'm shocked anyone would recommend a recipe with any valuable pollinator.

The ouside source was from the Uncover Reality forum, and the user posted the recipe in April 2007. Aware of the declining honey bee situation, in June 2008 she said, "Bumblebees are getting more and more scarce, so the pie is quite a delicacy".

Do you think a posting or answer like this one is irresponsible, regardless of the intention, especially considering the declining honeybee population?
