"On July 21, 2022, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature
placed the migratory monarch butterfly on its Red List of threatened species
and classified it as endangered. Monarchs migrate across North America each
year and are one of the continent’s most widely recognized species. The
Conversation
 asked Oklahoma State University biologist Kristen Baum, who has
studied pollinators for more than 25 years, to explain the listing’s
implications for the monarch butterfly in the U.S."
