One of the most remarkable and mysterious migrations in the natural world occurs every spring. Tens of millions of monarch butterflies make the epic aerial journey home. They’ve spent the winter hanging out in trees in a forest on a remote mountain in Mexico, resting up after flying all the way from Canada and the northern U.S. where they were born. It’s believed monarchs have been making this journey for thousands of years, but there’s a lot fewer of them than there used to be. The population in Mexico has declined 70% in the last 30 years. #butterfly #monarch #monarchbutterfly
