Caribbean Islands

Monarch butterflies are the spectacular orange “king” of insects. Each fall, flocks make a near-mythic migration from across North America to Mexico and Caribbean Islands. The awe-provoking aspect of the trip is that the butterflies migrating this year aren’t the ones who made it last year; they are descendants. Butterflies don’t live for more than a few months.
