The yearly migration undertaken by monarch butterflies is known as the "Monarch butterfly migration." This remarkable journey involves traveling thousands of miles from their breeding grounds in North America to central Mexico for the winter. Monarchs utilize a combination of environmental cues, including temperature, daylight, and wind patterns, to guide their migration. The return trip in the spring leads them back to the United States and Canada for breeding. This cycle showcases the butterflies' adaptability and highlights the importance of conserving their habitats along the migration routes.
