Each print includes a Certificate of Generosity, acknowledging that a percentage of your purchase will go towards the protection of Monarchs.
Monarch butterflies — once one of the most common and beloved species in the United States — are in serious trouble. Overall, monarch populations in the United States have plummeted more than 80% in the past two decades. They’ve lost an estimated 165 million acres of breeding habitat in the United States to herbicide spraying, development and global climate change.
Without emergency help, it’s almost certain that the butterflies that famously winter in California are on a sure path toward extinction. The eastern population of monarchs that overwinters in Mexico is at less than half the size needed to overcome extinction, and observations this summer show that a rebound is unlikely without robust interventions.
50% of the sale of this print will be donated to the Center for Biological Diversity, who are working tirelessly to save the Monarch, having sued the EPA, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s secretive Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), and striving to eliminate pesticide use in the National Wildlife Refuge System. Along with other groups, they were recently successful in finally getting the Monarch butterfly listed as an endangered species which will garner more protections for them.
