I'm not inclined to give much credence to an article that includes this 
clearly misleading paragraph:

"Every autumn, millions of monarchs fly south and west from southern 
Canada and the United States to the forests of the Mexican states of 
Michoacan and Mexico, stopping at sites along the way to breed and 
feed—a process that spans five generations. After spending the winter in 
Mexico, a new generation of insects begins the long journey northward 
toward the U.S.-Canada border."

Note: this is not what Davis says in his research paper. Rather, it's 
something made up by the National Geographic contributor and allowed 
into print by a lack of editing and fact checking. Sad to see on the 
website of a formerly prestigious publication.
