Caterpillars Startled by Dog's Bark

Occurred on August 18, 2022 / Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico

: "Monarch butterflies migrate hundreds of kilometers from Canada to Mexico every year to reproduce and spend the winter. The caterpillars only feed on the milkweed plant (Asclepia spp.) and, when they are large enough, they make their cocoon and turn into butterflies. Because we have this plant at home, it we very often see that butterflies have arrived to lay their eggs, they are very sensitive to noise and it is very important to take care of them."
