For the last 12 years we have been rearing Monarch butterflies in our classroom. At first we did it to show our friends the lifecycle (egg, larva, pupa, butterfly). The process is totally amazing! After some research we discovered that Monarch numbers are dipleting because their life cycle totally depends on milkweed. Urban sprawl and chemical spraying are making it hard for female Monarchs to find health milkweed to lay their eggs. Because of this we established our own milkweed/butterfly garden and dubbed it the “Milkweed Motel”. We are registered with Monarch Watch and have began tagging our Autumn hatchings that will be migrating to Mexico.
