Injured butterfly receives successful wing transplant
Transcript
00:00A monarch butterfly was brought in with a broken wing, so we rehabilitated him.
00:07We have a butterfly vivarium, so we used a dead butterfly wing, and we attached it to the living butterfly, and believe it or not, it worked.
00:23And this butterfly now can continue his migration down to Mexico.
00:30So exciting.
