CONSERVATION CORNER:
Monarch butterflies annually migrate en mass many miles (up to 3,000) between their U.S. and Canada breeding grounds and their winter homes in California and/or Mexico. This winter however Mexican Scientists noted declining eastern populations of monarchs, those that summer east of the Rocky Mountains. Their survival is endangered due to habitat loss from natural disasters in their Mexican wintering grounds and a shortage of milkweed plants in their summer home, which they rely on for breeding and feeding. You can help ensure the survival of monarchs by protecting monarch habitat and planting common milkweed.
