In this Oct. 6, 2014 photo, a mural with messages that read in Spanish; "Those who die for life, cannot be called dead," from left, "I do not fear state repression, I fear the silence of the people," and "Justice," inside the Raul Isidro Burgos rural teacher's college, also known as Ayotzinapa, in Tixtla, Mexico. Prosecutors attribute the Sept. 26 disappearances of 43 students from the rural college, to police. The case has outraged Mexicans even in a country where abuse of authority is common in remote areas. Some of the detained led authorities last weekend to mass graves holding 28 bodies that some fear are the students. Their identities are still unknown. (AP Photo/Eduardo Verdugo)

A poster offering a one million pesos for information on students who went missing hangs next to a bullet hole at the site where a small altar was erected by the spot where a student died recently in Iguala, Mexico, Tuesday, Oct. 7, 2014. After the discovery of a mass grave and charges that local police may have conspired with a criminal gang to kill and disappear the students, President Enrique Pena Nieto ordered a special federal police force to take over the town as his top security officials rushed to contain a smear on the image of stability and falling crime rates that they've projected to the outside world.

FILE - In this Friday, Oct. 19, 2007 file photo, a monarch butterfly takes flight from a wetland area at Cooks Slough Nature Park in Uvalde, Tex. as they make their yearly journey from summer homes in Canada and northern states to a winter nesting site in central Mexico. The butterflies are famous for migrating from the U.S. and Canada to Mexico for the winter. A study by researcher Marcus Kronforst of the University of Chicago released in the journal Nature on Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2014 suggests the species itself also started out in North America some 2 million years ago, instead of South or Central America.
