Hi, We are studying the monarch butterfly and have 3 questions for you:
1. How many butterflies died in Mexico during the freeze and
is this going to effect their population and future survival?
2. Where do they go and what do they do at night?
3. How many times do their wings flap in a minute?
Thank you, Melissa Pailes, Ben Thibodeau, and Adam Thurston
