In what California city can you be fined $500 for "annoying" a Monarch butterfly, an animal which has become synonymous with the coastal town?

Pacific Grove is nicknamed "Butterfly Town, U.S.A." because of the annual autumn migration of monarch butterflies to the small town near Monterey. According to a city ordinance, molesting a monarch is a crime that carries a $500 fine.
