À propos
On the Trail of the Monarch Butterfly features breathtaking photographs taken by Francisco Gutiérrez. In August 2005, Mexican filmmaker and pilot, Francisco Gutiérrez, took off in his ultralight aircraft from Montreal to follow the monarch butterflies on their 6,000 km migration from Canada to the mountains of central Mexico. His objective was to raise awareness of the importance of preserving the butterflies’ habitat. In collaboration with the Embassy of Mexico, the Canada Aviation and Space Museum has produced this panel exhibition from the material recorded by Gutiérrez on his journey.
