  • Take a microcosmic safari through a field of milkweed and discover a whole world of life, from bees to wasps to hummingbirds to butterflies. The charismatic Monarch butterfly is completely dependent on milkweed for its survival, and places like Yosemite National Park offer protection for this often overlooked plant.

    As a kid I remember seeing them all over, now I don't see many of them. I guess I now look at the milkweed in a different light.

    Beautiful! If everyone took heed and planted native milkweed and discontinued their use of pesticides (insecticides, herbicides, any "cide,") at home, we could potentially save the monarch butterfly and the declining native bee species.

    Teachers, show the movie to your students and have them plant milkweed.

    Does anyone know this "variation" of Common Milkweed because all the Common Milkweeds I've seen don't have the elongated hoods(the part where the nectar is stored; is usually kind of box like and short). The ones in this field have long, kind of wavy hoods, not the typical short, stubby ones. Thanks. Awesome video by the way:)

    May I ask, where is this meadow inside Yosemite National Park? I would love to visit this spot captured in the milkweed and monarch video when I visit.
