July 24, 2026
LIVE at 3:00 PM ET / 2:00 PM CT / 1:00 PM MT / 12:00 PM PT


Presented by Maru Marcias & Maria Clara Lamberti, Ph.D.

What do volcanoes have to do with monarch butterflies? More than you might think! Expedition Leader Maru Marcias and volcanologist Maria Clara Lamberti, Ph.D., explore how millions of years of tectonic activity, volcanism and mountain building created the landscapes that support Mexico's rich diversity of life. Journey through the Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt to the oyamel fir forests where monarch butterflies overwinter, and discover how geology continues to shape the forests, wildlife and ecosystems we experience on our Kingdom of the Monarchs adventure.
