Romy McCloskey, a professional costume designer from Texas employed her skills to mend the broken wing of a Monarch butterfly and shared the results online.
近日,得克薩斯州職業服裝設計師羅米·麥克洛斯基運用她的技能修復了一隻帝王蝶殘缺的翅膀,並在網上分享了結果。McCloskey recently found a Monarch with a badly damaged wing, suffering the injury while in the pupating phase of its development. So she decided to save it with surgery.
麥克洛斯基最近發現一隻帝王蝶在發育到化蛹階段時受傷,翅膀受損嚴重。因此她決定通過手術來拯救這隻蝴蝶。McCloskey grabbed few utensils, including "a towel, scissors, tweezers, talc, contact cement, toothpick" before sending the patient to the "operating room".
麥克洛斯基拿了一些器具,包括“一條毛巾、幾把剪刀、幾把鑷子、滑石粉、接觸水泥、牙籤”,然後把蝴蝶帶入“手術室”。

麥克洛斯基用彎曲的鋼絲衣架固定住蝴蝶,剪下蝴蝶翅膀破損的部分。After applying the wing from a dead butterfly she had found the week before, McCloskey shows the Monarch almost as good as new.
在她把前一週發現的死亡蝴蝶的翅膀粘上去後,這隻帝王蝶幾乎恢復如初。"A quick spin around the backyard, then a little rest on one of the bushes… and then off he flew!" the designer said. "My heart soared with him, for sure!"
這位設計師表示:“它在後院快速旋轉之後,在灌木叢中休息片刻後就飛了出去!我的心和它一起飛起來了!”McCloskey said that she hopes the instructions will encourage others to help injured butterflies, but warns 'that you have a steady hand or you could cause more harm than good.
麥克洛斯基稱,她希望這些說明能鼓勵其他人幫助受傷的蝴蝶,但是她也警告稱,你必須有雙不顫抖的手,否則你就會好心辦壞事。
