SUMMARY:In the Life of Monarchs East of the Rockies: Biology and the Great Migration
DESCRIPTION:This event will be recorded and posted to: The Xerces Youtube Channel\n\n\n\nDr. Ray Moranz will begin by presenting on the basic aspects of monarch biology\, including the life cycle\, the use for milkweeds as host plant\, the incorporation of cardiac glycosides as a chemical defense\, and the vulnerability of this species to various predators\, parasites\, parasitoids and diseases. However\, the heart of the talk will be on monarch migration\, and how monarch biology changes in fascinating ways from month to month as they move from one region of North America to another. He will do his best to provide information relevant to people from Saskatchewan to Mexico City\, and from Nova Scotia to Cuba\, and everywhere in between. He will conclude by talking about some things you can do to help monarchs where you live. \nThis webinar will be recorded and available on our YouTube channel. Closed Captioning will be available during this webinar. \n\nRay Moranz – Grazing Lands Pollinator Ecologist\, Partner Biologist for the NRCS Central National Technology Support Center – Xerces Society \nRay works to conserve pollinators on rangelands in the central U.S.\, and he also serves as a Partner Biologist to the USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service’s (NRCS) Central National Technology Support Center in Fort Worth\, TX. He is based at the NRCS Field Office in Stillwater\, Oklahoma. One focus of his work is to assist in the planning and implementation of monarch butterfly conservation efforts in the south central U.S.. Ray began studying the effects of fire and grazing on prairie plant and butterfly communities in 2004\, and earned his Ph.D. in natural resource ecology and management from Oklahoma State University in 2010. Prior to joining the Xerces Society\, he worked for The Nature Conservancy in Florida\, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service in California\, Iowa State University\, and Oklahoma State University.
