Fall Means: Monarch Butterfly Migration



Every fall, an interesting and amazing event takes place in the animal world.

The Monarch butterfly travels, sometimes by the hundreds, on an annual migration to Mexico

By instinct alone, the butterflies go to the same mountains that their ancestors left the previous spring.

The interesting part is that they find this place in Mexico without every having been there before.
