5Monarch Butterfly Migration, North America
Each year, millions of monarch butterflies embark on a remarkable migration from the United States and Canada to central Mexico, where they spend the winter. This migration, which covers up to 3,000 miles, is one of the most extraordinary feats of navigation and endurance in the animal kingdom.
The sight of millions of monarch butterflies clustered together in Mexico’s Oyamel forests is nothing short of magical. The trees and branches become covered in a shimmering blanket of orange and black wings, creating a breathtaking natural spectacle. Witnessing the monarch migration is a powerful reminder of nature’s wonders and the delicate balance of ecosystems.
