Migration of the Monarchs
Types of birds, fish, mammals, and insects migrate. For example, every year, monarch butterflies migrate in great numbers from the U.S. to forests in a specific mountain range in Mexico. On the first day of fall (the autumnal equinox), these butterflies begin a journey that can reach more than a thousand miles. They depend on a natural ability to find their way called a homing instinct.
