What’s that large orange butterfly you may have seen lately? The Missouri Department of Conservation wants to help you to discover nature and learn more about the majestic monarch.
The monarch is a striking insect common across the show-me-state.
Distinguished by their large size, broods are produced in summer and fall.
Unlike the more familiar bird migrations, monarch migration is multi-generational.
Ones born here, if they survive to the fall migration, they will try to make to Mexico where they over winter and survivors of the overwinter will come back.
The monarch life cycle from egg to caterpillar to chrysalis to adult only takes a little over a month to complete.
Adults live for only four to five weeks, except the last generation each year that can live for seven to eight months, reaching Mexico in the fall.
Monarch butterflies populations are in decline, due to deforestation in their wintering grounds.
Efforts are under way to protect this species and restore habitat.
