Vikki has the touch when it comes to helping to maintain and grow the Monarch butterfly population.

This year she will be releasing around 550 Monarchs from her home in Ohio.

The most fun part for her is watching for milkweed on her walks and then finding the caterpillars hiding underneath the leaves chomping away.

A large percentage of the Monarchs never reach the chrysalis stage due to predators.

While this takes lots of works and requires lots of dedication, Vikki’s mission is to save and release all the Monarchs she can.
