Scientists and transport officials in Florida have planted 15,000 milkweed plants along state roadsides as part of a conservation initiative for monarch butterflies. Milkweed is the sole plant on which monarchs lay their eggs, making it critical to their survival and reproduction. The effort aims to create a 10,200-acre roadside corridor that could serve as a long-term wildlife habitat across Florida.
