Welcome back, friends. I’m Dr. Universe. If you’re anything like me, you’ve got lots of big questions about our world.
In this episode, we meet Emily Erickson. She’s part of the Western Monarch Mystery Challenge team. That’s a community science project that asks people to look for monarch butterflies in early spring and send in pictures to help scientists learn more about these important pollinators.
If you’re interested in helping monarch butterflies near you, check out these nectar plant guides from the Xerces Society.
