Mission blue butterflies are an endangered species. They have been endangered since nineteen seventy-six, which is now thirty-seven years, endangered means no longer protected as they use too and not living in any way. The locations that these insects are only found in are Marin County, San Mateo County, and San Francisco County. These are very beautiful butterflies in my opinion. So, I say they deserve to get additionally protect before these butterflies are officially gone forever.
The difference between female and male mission blue butterflies is the females are chocolate brown with a mirror-like image also with brownish, black dots and the males are a dark sky blue shade with a ring of brown on the outside of the wings. But some of these butterflies are identical, between the female and male. Such as they can also look alike by light blue and dark blue with brown edge on the wings. Both female and male wingspans are the same, which is 0.83 inches to 1.3 inches long. These certain butterflies depend on summer lupine for food.
In order these creatures to not be endangered anymore there needs to be a change. More lupine, get legal protection in all states for them, and have garden clubs to grow lupine also flowers in the sunflower family so Mission Blue butterflies can have nectar so they can have something to drink.
Mission blue butterflies do not do much for the environment but they are very unique looking. Wouldn’t it be better to have more of anything than less and less everyday of something that is a part of nature? Everyone has technology, so enjoy what Mother Nature has presented. Beauty of what has always been here is better than man made things. So I say, more protection for Mission Blue butterflies before they are no longer existing.
