Monarch Facts

Monarchs are known for their incredible migration journey, traveling up to 3,000 miles from North America to central Mexico for the winter. The Monarch caterpillar is very hungry and can gain 2700 times their original weight. How to tell whether they are male or female. A Male Monarch has two black dots on their hindwings like in the photo below. Females don't have the two dots but have thicker veins on their wings.
