Monarch Butterfly Cloze exercise

The Monarch butterfly is a very interesting creature. Its colours are amazing with black and orange and its ability to eat milkweed is unbelievable. These are just some of the many things of the Monarch butterfly.

When it migrates it can cover 128 km and it can reach up to speeds of 18 km an hour. These insects migrate to warmer places over the winter because it is more comfortable.

When flying it travels 5 - 6 metres above the Earth’s ground. This is about the height of 2 and a half Mr Mcs. Although it can’t go above the ground when it is a caterpillar, it truly is a magnificent sight.
