Best Answer

Monarch caterpillars only eat milkweed leaves. That is why it is so important that people plant milkweed so that the monarchs can travel from Mexico to other parts of the United States. It takes 4 generations of caterpillar to butterfly to reach the northern parts of the US and Canada.
