The International Monarch Monitoring Blitz is a week to highlight the importance of citizen science work in conservation of species.
At the zoo, staff monitors 3 types of milkweed for monarch butterfly life stages (egg, caterpillar, chrysalis) and keeps an eye out for adults nearby. In line with research, we're finding females are choosing swamp and common varieties over butterfly weed.
Our data, along with others across North America, will be used to further help a threatened species.
