Sara Dykman made history when she became the first person to bicycle alongside monarch butterflies on their storied annual migration—a round-trip adventure through three countries and over 10,000 miles. Her book Bicycling with Butterflies recounts this incredible, nearly nine-month odyssey. In this episode of Nature Revisited, Sara talks about being drawn to animals as a child into adulthood, how she became enchanted by monarchs, the evolution of her experiences into a book, and how all of us can connect with and help save monarch butterflies by planting milkweed.
