蝴蝶之王(King of the Butterflies)

墨西哥最壮观的自然现象之一每年都可以在墨西哥城西部的森林山脉中观察到。从1月中旬到3月底,来自北方寒冷地区的大型帝王蝶群迁徙到这里,在温暖的墨西哥开始交配季节。这些庞大的殖民地最多可以容纳2000万个标本。帝王蝶在迁徙过程中利用气流,借助气流,它们每天可以飞行50公里。

One of Mexico's most spectacular natural phenomena can be observed every year in the forested mountains west of Mexico City. Between mid-January and the end of March, huge colonies of monarch butterflies from the colder regions of the north migrate here to begin the mating season in the warmth of Mexico. The vast colonies can contain up to 20 million specimens. Monarch butterflies make use of air currents during their migration, with the help of which they can travel up to 50 kilometers a day.
