With large wings bright orange coloring, the monarch is one of the most notable butterflies in the Americas, and also one of the most mysterious. From southern Canada all the way down to Mexico monarchs have a fascinating life cycle. Tanna and Lyndzee are joined by KDWP education specialist and resident monarch enthusiast, Pam Martin, to talk about monarch migration, identification, and ways we can encourage monarch population growth and habitat.
