美國服裝設計師爲蝴蝶補翅膀意外成網紅

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。
