Where have all the Monarch Butterflies gone?
On Saturday, June 5 th at 4 pm, the Friends of San Pedro Valley Park welcomed Kim Young, a Xerces Society Ambassador who discussed the Western Monarch butterflies, their migratory route and breeding habits. She discussed the severe decline in butterfly populations that has occurred in the last two decades and the various causes that have contributed to the collapse of the once large and healthy populations that were visible in their over-wintering clusters in forested groves in California.
