The monarch butterfly should be familiar to students who live in many parts of the country. The species receives lots of attention because there have been concerns about population numbers related to the destruction of habitat suited to be a food source. This reality can lead discussion of many scientific issues. Since monarchs can be observed close up in gardens and ditches, finding them is a reasonable task. Often students also collect the caterpillars at certain times of the year a watch the caterpillar go through the metamorphosis process to become a butterfly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
