Monarch butterfly decline threatens food chain stability
SUMMARY: Over the past month, monarch butterflies have migrated from the northern US to Mexico, facing challenges due to habitat loss and a declining population. Meteorologists are concerned about the impact of this decline on food production, as one in three bites of food depends on pollinators. Historically found in Southeast Texas, monarchs have decreased by about 90% since the 1990s due to urban development. To combat this, planting native plants and milkweed can provide crucial food and shelter. Community initiatives, like butterfly gardens, aim to restore habitats and support pollinators, encouraging everyone to participate regardless of their living situation.
Admiring Monarch butterflies during the Fall in Texas should be easy to do.
