By September, when milkweed plants have started to die back, monarchs begin their autumn migration to Mexico.

The increased logging of their wintering grounds has resulted in a loss of habitat for the migrating butterflies.

In addition, the widespread planting of genetically modified crops, increased use of neonicotinoids, erratic weather patterns, and shifts in climate are all key factors that have been implicated as causes of the monarchs decline in recent years.
