A Historic Milestone: Monarch Butterfly Proposed as Threatened Under the Endangered Species Act

A Historic Milestone: Monarch Butterfly Proposed as Threatened Under the Endangered Species Act

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

On 12/10/24, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service announced a landmark decision to propose federal protections for the monarch butterfly under the Endangered Species Act. This long-awaited and critical move acknowledges the urgent plight of one of the most iconic migrating species on Earth.

For years, environmentalists and scientists have warned of the monarch’s rapid decline due to habitat loss, pesticide use, and climate change. Now, the beloved pollinator, known for its awe-inspiring migration, faces a tipping point. Listing the monarch as a threatened species will help protect critical habitats and raise awareness of its fragile existence.

This decision is a call to action for all of us. The monarch butterfly’s survival depends on immediate and collective efforts. Supporting organizations like Native Monarchs, which works tirelessly to restore habitats, and businesses like Monarch Botanika, which funds conservation through innovative products like Milkweed Seed Oil skincare, is vital.

Together, we can ensure this breathtaking species continues to grace our skies for generations to come. Let’s turn this decision into action and work together to protect the monarch butterfly.
