Learn why touching butterfly wings can harm them by rubbing off their delicate scales, which are essential for flying and cannot regrow.
Butterflies have tiny, colorful scales on their wings that help them fly. When you touch their wings, you can accidentally brush those scales off. Since the scales are very important for flying and they do not grow back, it's best to admire butterflies without touching them. This way, you help keep them safe and able to fly happily.
So, instead of touching, you can watch butterflies flap their wings and enjoy their beautiful colors from a little distance!
