That's the life story of the monarch butterfly.
Perhaps from a human perspective, a short life and a grueling road trip doesn't seem like fun, but for this butterfly it's vitally important.
Here are a few quick facts:
When migrating, the butterflies travel about 75 miles a day.
They migrate in colonies of more than 20 million.
The butterflies that migrate to Mexico have never been there before but travel on instinct.
They weigh less than a gram.
Impressive, aren't they?
The life story of the monarch butterfly should also reassure us of our own place in the Universe.
If a tiny butterfly can live such an amazing life, can we expect anything less for ourselves?
Write your life story.
