Our iconic Monarch Butterflies are truly a natural wonder. Their incredible 3,000-mile migration from Mexico to Canada and back takes 4 generations to complete. It is a wonder of nature and unique within the entire animal kingdom. Although resilient, they need our help. Monarch populations have declined over 90% in recent decades. Humans have created this problem but can also solve it. In this webinar we will discuss why the Monarch is so important, and simple ways we can all do our part to prevent their extinction.
