The use of the word "killjoy" is very interesting. This monarch release
was not supposed to have been done for pleasure but for science.
My view is that it is wrong and was a publicity stunt. Many eminent
scientists are oposed to this kind of thing.
There are many people who enjoy helping in studying the monarch migration.
Their work is being ruinied. Their joy is being killed too.
