For reasons unknown to me (or, I would wager, most anyone else), the US Forest Service refers t deo the Reserve as the "Mariposa Monarca Biosphere Reserve" on its Monarch conservation web page. I don't know, maybe they started translating the name into Spanish but got tired and gave up halfway through. You are correct, though, the proper English name is "Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve." Incidentally, the Spanish name is actually "La Reserva de la Biosfera Mariposa Monarca" (i.e. it's not just a "biosphere of the Mariposa Monarca" that's being reserved).

I am moving the content about the migration to the Monarch migration article.

I added content under the Monarch Migration Section. I added "Come Spring, these butterflies migrate across America, sometimes ending up in Eastern Canada. Over the time it takes them to make this journey, four generations of monarch butterflies are born and die.[6] The monarch butterflies migration patterns are altered by climate change. During migration, monarchs fly north once they are exposed to cooler temperatures." I added this information because while doing research, I came across these facts in reliable scientific journal references, and I felt that this information was essential to the understanding of monarch migration as a whole. --Cjolly3 (talk) 05:26, 3 March 2016 (UTC)Claire Jolly March 2, 2016[reply]
