It was once believed that there were no monarch butterflies in Arizona, but
instead through the power of a Citizen Science study monitoring monarch
breeding habitats and their migration, it was discovered that Arizona could be the
migration flyway funnel west of the Rockies.
Morris’s studies of the monarch butterfly over the last eight years have made her
the leading monarch conservation specialist in Arizona and the southwestern
United States. She is a frequent educator for Southwest Monarch Study,
Monarch Watch and Monarch Joint Venture.
