Watching a monarch caterpillar strip a swan plant can be one of those lasting memories from childhood. But now people are being urged to report sightings of live monarch butterflies as experts sound the alarm over their declining numbers - especially in cities. Over winter they survive by gathering in clusters on tall trees or in urban green spaces but there's been a noticeable drop off in those habitats. Jacqui Knight from the Moths and Butterflies Trust spoke to Jesse.

Our next story is one about a very hungry caterpillar, but spoiler alert - it doesn't have a very happy ending. There's an unlikely danger lurking which could be contributing to the demise of our Monarch Butterflies! Some experts here believe Swan Plants, which many of us rush out to buy to attract the butterflies - are covered in pesticides that are killing them. Moths and Butterflies of New Zealand Trust founder Jacqui Knight joins us now!  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On March 10th, Jacqui met with President Barack Obama and First Lady, Michelle Obama. She will update us on the conditions in Apache as well as tell us about her trip to Washington DC. Jacqui Knight is heading the Apache Native American Student and Parent Awareness Community in a protest against discrimination in public schools. On November 22 and 23, Jacqui and the group held a protest to bring about awareness of the issue and get their concerns addressed by the Apache school system. In our small towns such as Apache, our Native American youth are dropping out of school, failing in classes, getting involved in criminal activity and running away from home. All of these negative effects stem from the ongoing discriminatory and hateful atmosphere they feel in the public school system. This is a huge problem all across Oklahoma.
