Monarch Butterflies migrate along the West Coast primarily to coastal areas of California. Key locations include the central coast, particularly around San Luis Obispo and Santa Cruz, as well as eucalyptus groves and other protected sites where they gather in large numbers during the winter months. These sites provide the necessary shelter and climate for the butterflies to survive the colder season.
Where the monarch butterflies in your community go each autumn depends on your location. Monarchs that are east of the Rocky Mountains migrate to a mountain forest in south-central Mexico. The ones west of the Rocky Mountains migrate to southern California.
They migrate were all butterflys go, to Mexico or South America.
The relationship between the life cycle and the migration pattern of the monarch butterfly Monarch butterflies are not able to survive the cold winters of most of the United States so they migrate south and west each autumn to escape the cold weather. The monarch migration usually starts in about October of each year, but can start earlier if the weather turns cold sooner than
Killer whales off the west coast of the United States spend the summer in the north pacific near Washington state and further north. In the winter they migrate to southern California
It is on the west coast of the State of Florida, but not on the west coast of the United States.
The east coast is on the east and the west coast is on the west.
The Monarch Butterfly population, as well as numerous other animal species, is suffering the effects of man-made events as well as the consequences of the "global warming" phenomenon. Scientists assert that the global climate change may cause the Monarch's over-wintering sites in Mexico to become wetter, and the spring and summer breeding areas of the United States west coast and mid-western agricultural belt to become warmer. As temperatures become too warm for this species, their summer migrations may take them even further northward.

I know every year those monarchs west of the Rockies migrate to the California coast and those monarchs east of the Rockies fly to specific area in Mexico. The only food that the Monarch caterpillar eats is milkweed, so this is the plant on which the female lays her eggs. Monarchs choose milkweed because it contains toxins which the caterpillars absorb and which discourages their being eaten by predators. The caterpillars are immune to the toxin. There are many species of milkweed which the Monarch can utilize. One can encourage Monarchs and create a butterfly garden with milkweed plants. Once you attract monarchs to your garden with milkweed, raise them and observe their fascinating life cycle. Monarchs populations have seriously declined in recent decades due to habitat loss and other factors.
