Utah Residents Asked To Track Monarch Butterfly Sightings

(Logan, UT) — Officials are asking Utah resident to track their monarch butterfly sightings. The Center for Biological Diversity says the monarch butterfly population has declined by 85 percent over the last two decades. Conservationists say residents can help by enrolling in the Utah Pollinator Pursuit program. Officials say once a person watches the training videos they’re free to download the app and start capturing butterflies they see. The information will help conservationists know where to restore habitats and what areas to protect.
