WING TRANSPLANT: An injured monarch butterfly is miraculously able to fly again after undergoing a wing transplant at a nature preserve in Long Island, New York. Here, the insect can be seen undergoing the procedure, then flying away afterwards. Sweetbriar Nature Center used a wing from a deceased butterfly and carefully matched it to the broken wing. Monarch butterflies are the only known butterfly to migrate two ways for thousands of miles every year, according to the United States Department of Agriculture. The monarch population has declined markedly in recent decades as its food source, milkweed, has been annihilated by herbicides, making this delicate rescue all the more extraordinary.

Even though butterflies live about 2 weeks, they wanted to give her her best life. 🦋 ❤️ Skyler (saviour) writes: "This monarch came out of her chrysalis with a broken wing, which would have prevented her from living a healthy life. Naturally, we did our best to save her rather than letting her pass away due to not being able to eat. We had a butterfly pass away a few weeks ago that I was saving to put into a shadow box, but she was clearly meant to serve a bigger purpose! We used a wing from the deceased butterfly to save this Monarch, and she flew off like nothing happened after she got her little snack in. You can tell this one is a girl by the thick veins in her wings! My heart is so happy. 🐛🦋" Credit 🎥 - Skyler Stelz on IG
