Default UPDATE Monarch caterpillars eating all the milkweed!

The caterpillar munched tropical milkweed is pushing out new leaves
and, I suspect, will be full again in a week or so. I'm glad, because
I like those fiery blooms.

I want to encourage butterflies in my garden, but the caterpillars are
consuming the milkweed plant. The plant is practically leafless now.

Will the plant bounce back? How should I deal w/these critters?
