One tagged Monarch butterfly was caught 265 miles away from where it had been released the previous day.
(This was the record flight Urquhart tagging program. The butterfly was tagged in Waterford, Pennsylvania and recaptured at a site in Virgina.) Hope this gives you a good idea!
Monarch Butterflies can travel between 50 and 100 miles per day during migration. However, this number varies depending on the individual butterfly.
Around 375 miles in 16 hours. It takes them eight to ten weeks to complete their full migration which is around 5000 miles!
6,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000... inches DO THE MATH
This depends upon the weather and winds . One tagged monarch was recaptured 265 miles away from where it had been released the previous day .
Wingspan of about 4 inches. As butterflies go, they're really not that variable in size.
There is a species of butterfly called the Queen butterfly. It's coloration mimics that of the Monarch butterfly. As far as butterflies having queens like ants and bees do, no there cannot be a queen butterfly because butterflies do not form colonies in the same way that ants and bees do.
While the total miles flown by each individual butterfly varies by where they start, all migrate south when the weather cools down. The average flight is 2,500 miles.
No one knows for sure exactly how far a butterfly travels in one day when it migrates for the winter. It is believed many species travel 100's of miles a day.
Monarch butterflies can be found throughout southern Canada, all over the mainland United States, and as far south as the Caribbean
The monarchs rest on a flower or in a safe shelter away from preditors.
far far away
uhh ravens don't migrate at all!
7700miles
as far as i know, political butterfly is define as political opportunist.
As an example of what?15 of the 41 states with a "state insect" have Apis mellifera as their state insect (not counting Tennessee which has it as the state agricultural insect, with the 7-spotted ladybug as the state insect period). It's by far the most popular choice; the second most common one is the Monarch butterfly (5 states; another 2 have it as the state butterfly but not the state insect, and Kentucky has the Viceroy butterfly, which looks almost identical to the Monarch but is a different species, as its state insect).
Their range depends upon weather , winds and temperature . One tagged monarch was recaptured 265 miles away from where it had been released the previous day .
