Monarch Butterflies Are Now an Endangered Species(LiveScience)
Monarch butterflies are already arriving in Mexico as part of their annual migration from Canada and the United States, reported the Monarch Butterfly Royal Mail Program of the organization Mexican Wildlife Protection (Profauna).
Initial reports indicate that they have already traveled through the Great Lakes region in Canada and the United States to enter the states of Coahuila, Nuevo León and Tamaulipas to take refuge from the winter season.
Through social networks, the organization called on citizens to report and document sightings of Monarch Butterflies in order to have information on the progress of the species.
Rocío Treviño Ulloa, who heads the initiative, said: "It's official, the monarch butterfly is already in Mexico! If you live on the border of Mexico: Coahuila, Nuevo Leon and Tamaulipas, pay attention! This is your chance to report the Monarch butterfly sighting. Share so that more people will know about this great news."
The call was well received by many citizens, who immediately sent in their reports of Monarch Butterfly sightings.
"Today I am making my first Monarch Butterfly sighting in the urban area. Feeding on polocotes in a private property in San Andres neighborhood, Francisco Javier Mina street, one block from clinic 92. Coordinates 29.313123,-100.926057", said one of the Coahuila volunteers on October 11.
Information can be sent by volunteers to the email: correo.monarca@gmail.com, with name of the observer, date and time of the sighting, as well as the location, weather conditions and details of the activity the monarch butterfly was doing (flying, perching, feeding, mating, ovipositing or drinking water) with attached photographs or videos.
