The Monarch Butterflies have a very important job to do during their short life times. They increase the gentetic diversity of plants by a dramatic amount. Every year, millions of Monarch Butterflies migrate from southern Canada to Mexico, and each of them will pollenate millions of flowers, since the main diet of M. Butterflies is nectar. A few butterflies will carry pollen with them to Mexico, where they will in turn, fertilize the the plants with the pollen the are carrying. This process greatly increases genetic diversity in different species of flowers and other plants.
