Monarch Extinction (substantial evidence?)

[Donna Brunet]

I think there might be a simple reason for the photos looking different from
the maps.  A lot of ground that was 80-100% forest cover is now 30-80%
forest cover.  The maps are a look from overhead straight down, and your
photos are a view from the side, which would (especially at a distance),
hide any thinning of forest cover.
