About the Film:

Western Monarch Butterflies: Protecting Our Pollinators.

The significant decline of the western monarch butterfly population is a concerning indicator of the overall health of many pollinator species in the western United States. Conservationists and dedicated community members are making considerable efforts to restore these vital species by improving natural habitats and establishing pollinator-friendly gardens.
