Video resources: General Monarch Conservation

 

THE WILD CENTER - The website for The Wild Center features two excellent lectures on monarch conservation. Drs Chip Taylor and Lincoln Brower each presented one hour lectures at the Center recently. Both lectures provide a strong background on the issues facing the summer and winter habitats of the monarchs. Some of the info may be too technical for the general public but all in all, they are very worthwhile to listen in multiple times to better understand the issues.

 

Dr Karen Oberhauser's monarch conservation webinar (Dec. 2014) is a great introduction to the issues facing monarchs' population.

 

Dr Gary Nabhan's Make Way for Monarchs talk at Prescott College in AZ highlights the challenges facing resource managers charged with expanding habitat to include native milkweeeds and nectar plants.
