Did anyone look into the theory that the reason the Monarchs are staying in the Southern States during the winter instead of migrating to Mexico is the loss of habitat in their wintering grounds in Mexico? The farmers there are cutting down the fir trees at an alarming rate to plant avocado trees in order to make enough money to live on.

How cool is that! I suspect the scientists will find some use for the information gleaned and create some useful synthetic product from what they've learned.
Slava Ukraini!

The aboriginal peoples and many cultures throughout the world share a common respect for nature and the universe, and all of the life that it holds. We could learn much from them!

I can read the article & enlarge the pictures but I am not finding any video or a link to a video. Help! I've lost it & I can't find it.

Is this what you're looking for, Ann?

The video is inside the article, almost at the end. Search for "the video footage" and you'll get right to it.
