The monarch butterfly is world-famous, one of the longest-lived butterfly species, and one of the most interesting species to study. In the Fall, Northern monarch populations migrate thousands of miles South with a corresponding multi-generational return migration North the next Spring. Southern monarch populations migrate further South to Southern California and Mexico.
