Scientists Attach Tiny Trackers to Monarch Butterflies to Map Migration

• Scientists have tagged nearly 1,750 monarch butterflies to map their 3,000-mile journey.
• Researchers are attaching tiny tracking devices to the butterflies to find critical stopover locations.
• The project aims to identify key areas where monarchs rest and feed during their migration.
• The tracking effort is led by scientists who were inspired by childhood curiosity about the butterflies' journey.
• The data collected will help in conservation efforts for the monarch butterfly population.
