Monarch Watch -is a network where school children help raise, tag, and follow the migrations of the Monarch butterfly from North America to Mexico and California every fall. Their goals are to further science education, particularly in primary and secondary school systems, to promote conservation of monarch butterflies, and to involve thousands of students and adults in a cooperative study of the monarch's fall migration. - http://kids.nationalgeographic.com/kids/animals/creaturefeature/monarch-butterflies/
