IDNR needs your help to increase monarch butterfly habitat
The Illinois Department of Natural Resources, along with partners representing agriculture, transportation or utility rights-of-way, conservation lands, urban, and educational sectors are working to develop a plan to increase monarch butterfly habitat in Illinois.
A first step is to identify ongoing monarch conservation efforts so that we can better coordinate among them to create more butterfly habitat where it is needed. Following is a link to a survey has been developed to capture all of the diverse activities that are occurring for monarch butterfly conservation throughout Illinois.
The online survey, which should take no more than 20 minutes to complete, is accessible through this link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ILMonarchsurvey. If you have an active Monarch conservation program, you will answer no more than 25 questions. For diverse organizations, please designate no more than one person per unit or program to complete the survey.
We encourage you to forward the survey link to other colleagues that may interested in filling it out. Anyone interested in participating in the survey should complete it by June 17. We look forward to sharing the results of the survey with you.
The survey development team thanks you in advance for your participation!
