Climate change will likely increase monarch butterflies'

vulnerability to extinction. As temperatures warm and weather patterns become more unpredictable, monarch butterflies may struggle to migrate and find suitable breeding grounds. In addition, climate change could lead to a decline in the availability of milkweed plants, which are essential for monarch caterpillars to feed on. The combination of these factors could result in a decrease in the monarch butterfly population and an increased risk of extinction. Conservation efforts, such as planting milkweed and creating protected habitats, will be crucial in helping to mitigate the impacts of climate change on monarch butterflies.
