🦋 Some butterflies are social. Some are masters of camouflage. Some are dazzling illusionists. Which will you adopt? 🍊The Museum’s butterflies go through more than 100 pounds of fruit every month. Adopt a butterfly and help keep the Butterfly Vivarium thriving. We’ll send you a certificate of butterfly adoption along with a photo and fun facts about the species you choose. Plus, a donor will add $100 to your first gift—making your contribution go even further! Learn more with the link in our bio. Photos: Alvaro Keding/©AMNH #nature #nyc #butterflies #museum
