Highway road sign wishes monarch butterflies a safe journey [1]

[]

Date: 2024-01-17

This sweet highway road sign in Canada displayed a message to wish migrating butterflies a safe journey. Monarch butterflies in Canada travel up to 3000 miles south every winter from central Mexico.

What a wonderful sign to drive by! I also love the butterfly migration photos in this post. I want to be there while they fly by.

From Instagram:

"Highway road sign in Canada wishing monarch butterflies a safe migration south for the winter. Every year monarch butterflies travel up to 3000 miles from the United States and Canada to central Mexico to escape the winter cold. Via @arcx1000"

Some populations of the Monarch butterfly are classified as endangered. If you live in the relevant climate zones, you can help save them!
