DIstance from Canada to Michoacan

Dear Sir,

You state that “Monarch butterflies that make the yearly voyage of more than 2,000 kilometers from Canada to the Mexican state of Michoacan.” It is more, much more.  It is 4,500 kilometers from the U.S.-Canadian border to Morelia, Michoacan.

Perry Montoya

We checked that the distance from Point Pelee National Park in Ontario (where many Monarchs migrate from) to Angangueo, Michoacan is 2,916 kilometers or 1,858 miles.  Apologies for any ambiguity.
