"The colorful insect's migration across the North American continent is one of the greatest natural events on Earth."

"It’s not too late to save them, but it’s a question of whether we make the effort, scientists say."

Shots of a Monarch chrysalis and a Monarch member of the "super generation." There are 4 generations and the last, the super, is the one that makes the incredible journey to Mexico and back in the Spring. Least we forget, this beautiful creature is endangered.
