This autumn we tagged eight of the monarch butterflies that we raised in the classroom, before we set them free. We got the tags from the Monarch Butterfly trust. We have entered information about our butterflies on the Monarch Butterfly trust's website and if anybody finds one of our butterflies they can tell that it's ours by the number on the tag. One of our butterflies was found in Marybank two days after we set it free.
This way we hope that we can find out whether our butterflies are surviving the winter and where they go.
