Monarch Butterflies: Dwindling Numbers for an Iconic Insect

press release: Presented by WSCB and Madison Audubon

Join us on Tuesday, October 18 to hear Karen Oberhauser, one of the nation's top monarch conservation biologists, describe the amazing biology of migratory monarch populations, and the work of citizens and scientists in documenting monarch numbers at all stages of their migratory cycle. She will discuss threats to monarchs, and potential responses to these threats. Because conservation biology must be, at its essence, a science of hope, Karen's focus is on positive changes as well as on the challenges posed by declining monarch numbers.

Tuesday, October 18, 2016, 7:00 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.
