Why are monarch butterfly endanger?
According to the WWF and the IUCN, Monarch Butterflies are not currently endangered. However, their migratory patterns are at risk because their routes are endangered due to habitat loss. Illegal deforestation of their overwintering grounds is the greatest current threat. Logging of their traditional wintering grounds means the butterflies have fewer places to rest during winter. Not only that, but such habitat loss reduces their supply of milkweed, a key component of their diet. There is some evidence, too, that chemicals used to kill milkweed also affect the caterpillars and adult Monarch Butterflies. Efforts to protect the Monarch Butterfly are underway, with laws being passed in areas of Mexico and California that protect parts of the monarch butterfly's habitat.
