Monarch Migration Map Questions

An early monarch was spotted in Wisconsin on April 20th.

  • How early is the Wisconsin monarch compared to other years?
  • How far ahead is it compared to other Midwest sightings?

 

How early is the Wisconsin monarch? In your answer include at least one measurement and one comparison. (See migration maps from past years.)

How far ahead is the Wisconsin monarch compared to others at the same latitude? In your answer include at least one measurement and one comparison. (See this year's map.)

Why did this happen? Nobody knows! Many factors could cause this pattern. Give your own hypothesis.
