*Monarch Biology and Conservation Basics*

>From egg to adult, monarchs undergo a fascinating metamorphosis. The life
cycle of monarchs is well known and inspirational, making these iconic
insects ideal for research and science education. However, habitat loss and
other threats are endangering this majestic creature.

After attending this webinar, you'll have a greater understanding of the
monarch's life cycle, biology, as well as their incredible journey across
North America to overwintering sites in Mexico and California each year.

This is the first webinar in the "Monarch Butterfly Conservation Webinar
Series" that is being jointly produced by the Monarch Joint Venture and the
US Fish and Wildlife Service. Future webinars will focus on habitat
conservation and enhancement, milkweed propagation, and other topics where
you can learn how to take a more active role in protecting monarchs.
