Thank you, Carol Dover, for posting your comment and link. Apparently Erie Shores Healthcare doesn’t care about nature. No ethics. Disgusting.
Please reconsider releasing butterflies to honour people you care about. This is a cruel custom. My loved ones would be mortified if I did this to a defenseless creature in their memory. Here is some information on Butterfly Releases you might find interesting and informative.
