Monarch butterflies overwintering in Oyamel Forest

Every year in November and December, thousands of Monarch butterflies flock to the Oyamel Forest in central Mexico to spend the winter in a state of hibernation. The canopy cover of the forest and the nearby streams maintain a delicate homeostasis which provides enough moisture to keep butterflies saturated in the near-freezing air. via Hungeree.
