Most people will think of flowers rather than trees when they think of butterflies, but the oyamel forest in Mexico’s Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve is critical for the survival of the migratory monarch species. The migratory monarch butterfly, a beloved pollinator, reached a devastating milestone in July of 2022 as it was officially listed as endangered by the IUCN. This drastic decline has made the restoration of the monarch habitat vital. Each year, millions of monarchs migrate to the oyamel forest in Mexico. Amazingly, each fir tree can shelter as many as 20,000 butterflies, making the restoration of this forest essential. Fortunately, with the help of our international network of planting partners, specifically Land Life Company, the protection of the monarch's winter habitat is possible. And that is one step closer to a world where these butterflies can once again thrive. See how #ATreeCanBe a home 🦋🌳 https://lnkd.in/g4raFkWu
I love this partnership and the connection to childhood memories of seeing my uncle's tree in his front yard look exactly like this on their migration path. 🦋
