Milkweed Plant Why are Milkweed plants poisonous? To prevent other organisms from eating it.

Milkweed and Monarch Why does Monarch Caterpillar only eat Milkweed plants? So that it can become poisonous to eat

Milkweed and Monarch Why are Monarch Caterpillar easy to spot? So that it can become poisonous to eat

Milkweed and Monarch Why are newly hatched Monarchs harder to spot? Since it hasn’t eaten any Milkweed plants, it is not poisonous to eat yet.

Poisonous Animals Which animals are poisonous? All of them

Which snake is poisonous Red Touch Yellow - Kills a Fellow Red Touches Black - Friend of Jack Why is the King Snake’s colors so similar to the Coral Snake? King Snake Not Poisonous Coral Snake Poisonous

Which butterfly is the Monarch Butterfly Which butterfly is poisonous? Viceroy Butterfly is not poisonous It mimics the Monarch Butterfly patterns to get protection from predators Viceroy Butterfly (Not Poisonous) Monarch Butterfly (Poisonous)

Are all poisonous animals colorful? Inland Taipan Found in Australia Most Venomous Snake in the world Single bite will kill a person in 30 to 45 minutes Why is this deadly snake not colorful?

Are all poisonous animals colorful? Irukandji Jellyfish (size of fingernail) can kill you with a single sting. They are not used to make Jelly 98% Water No Heart or Blood Most don’t have a brain (except Box Jellyfish) Most only detect light. Some have 24 eyes (Box Jellyfish) Why is this Poisonous Jellyfish not Colorful?

Why is the Monarch Population Declining? Glyphosate is a herbicide. Glyphosate is the most widely used herbicide in the US and it is found in a populate weed killer called Roundup Glyphosate kills most plants

How does Glyphosate kill plants Glyphosate prevents plants from making certain proteins that are needed for plant growth. Glyphosate is killing the milkweed plants growing near the field

Glyphosate doesn’t kill corn and soy beans created by Monsanto. Why? Monsanto created Genetically modified (GMO) corn and soybeans that are resistant to Glyphosate Farmers buy these (GMO) corns and soybeans and spray Glyphosate all over their fields

If farmers continue to use Glyphosate, what will happen to the Milkweed plants?
