Every autumn, around three million Monarch butterflies will travel around 3,000 miles to inhabit the mountains of central Mexico or small groves of trees along Californiaâs coast.
Monarch experts are blaming the warmer temperatures in 2012, which was followed by a cold snap in 2103 as the reason for the decrease in the Monarchâs winter habitat. If winter habitats continue to decrease, Monarch butterflies will become more rare, and could even become extinct.he butterfly is also used as the emblem of the North American Free Trade Agreement. As the winter grounds become smaller, the Monarch Butterfly could become rare and even extinct. Andy Davis, a member of the research team recommends that people place the milkweed plant around their homes for the butterfly.
