Under the California Endangered Species Act, birds, mammals, fish, amphibians, reptiles, and plants are all protected -- but not invertebrates, like bees.
"The issue presented here is whether the bumble bee, a terrestrial invertebrate, falls within the definition of fish, as that term is used in the definitions of endangered species in section 2062, threatened species in section 2067, and candidate species (i.e., species being considered for listing as endangered or threatened species) in section 2068 of the Act," according to California's Third District Court of Appeal [see https://www.courts.ca.gov/opinions/documents/C093542.PDF]

Other plaintiffs include a list of wealthy agribusinesses, including Stewart Resnick's The Wonderful Company LLC:
Stewart Allen Resnick (born December 24, 1936) is an American billionaire businessman and philanthropist. In 2018, Resnick was the wealthiest farmer in the United States. Resnick and his wife, Lynda Resnick, bought The Franklin Mint in 1986 and sold it in 2006. Since 1979 Resnick has been the chairman and president of The Wonderful Company.
There was some sneaky stuff going on in June, 1984:
A derivative is linearisation, and differential calculus is essentially linear algebra, ... See Freya Holmér - Why Can't You Multiply Vectors? and Freya Holmér on Continuity of Splines .

Alan Edelman talking about expressing mathematics as computer code. The idea is that you can use computer languages to communicate mathematical ideas precisely to other people.

I mean, how to get the best of the two different philosophies of computation. One is based on typed programming languages and the other on engineering with diagrams . This is about practical computing and the cost and feasibility of software development in general. Here is the problem: We have a lot of algorithms which can all be described abstractly using some sort of pseudocode, or perhaps using some particular language (usually Python!). These algorithms are often well-studied and a lot is known about them in terms of their computational complexity in time and space. Substantive practical software systems invariably employ many such algorithms, often implemented in libraries with more or less well-specified APIs. But very few of these libraries are capable of interoperating because they are either packages written in some specific programming language like Java or Haskell, say, or they are written in C and used as object code, or they are written in an interpreted language like Sc...
Listening to Freya Holmér last night I started to get glimmers of an idea I had long ago about how to represent vector spaces in computational processes using this recursive abstract type : abstype 'a point = POINT of {getx : 'a vector, diff : 'a point -> 'a point, move : 'a point -> 'a point, scale : 'a -> 'a point, proj : 'a point -> 'a} with fun new i (op +) (op -) (op * ) dot = let fun self x = POINT {getx = x, move = fn (POINT pr) => (self (x + (#getx pr))), diff = fn (POINT pr) => self (x - (#getx pr)), scale = fn i => (self (x * i)), proj = fn (POINT pr) => ...
