Why are monarchs in southern Florida non-migratory?
A warmer climate and the continuous availability of milkweed (for larvae/breeding) and nectar (for adults) allow monarchs to persist and breed year-round in southern Florida. The extent to which there is interchange between the south Florida population and the eastern population during migration seasons is unknown.
