Monarch butterflies 'Danaus Plexippus' are seen on a tree branch in the forests of Oyamel during their migration to Mexico from August to October to escape the low temperatures from their country of origin, the butterflies travel more than four thousand kilometers to reach the forests of 'Biosphere Reserve of the Monarch Butterfly' where they hibernate at the end of their cycle and return to their natural habitat in Canada.
