The moment was shared by Sweetbriar Nature Centre on Instagram, showing how the center’s team helped the injured butterfly by carefully fixing its wing.

In the video, a staff member explains how they carefully trimmed the butterfly’s damaged wing and then attached a piece from a deceased butterfly like a transplant for wings.
