I Picked up a butterfly last night and brought it home and put it on my bush but he keeps getting off and he can’t fly so I dont want him to die or get smooshed or something anyway I brought him my house and put him in a container and put paper over the hole so he doesnt fly out and he only stays on the paper…

I dont know what to do. Help? Could you recommend website?

Answer #1

since you picked up the butterfly he cant fly anymore. once you touch they’re wings tthey can no longer fly so hes most probably gonna sie but put a lil sponge of water and ther and some twigs and leaves

Answer #2

You should leave things alone… Why the need to take something and contain it? It will probably die.

Answer #3

Depending on where you live, it’ll begin to be too cold for the butterfly. If they don’t travel like Monarchs do, it’s going to die soon, since butterflies obviously don’t last all autumn/winter.

Answer #4

make sure he has water, and put some twigs in there, but it does sound like he will die, sorry :’(
