Fewer than 10% of monarch eggs and larvae will survive to become adult butterflies, largely due to predation of the larvae. Raising them in an indoor habitat boosts survival to rates well over 90%. Holly & Jennifer will show participants how and where to look for butterfly eggs and larvae and how to support them as they go through their amazing transformation.
