Thank you for checking out our shop and for supporting small businesses and artists! WHERE THEY COME FROM: All our insects are legally obtained and have been cleared by U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. We purchase them already deceased, after they die of natural causes (butterflies have an average life span of only two weeks). We do not sell any threatened species, or those listed the Endangered Species Act. Our insects come from breeders and insect farms, both local and some located in some of the most exotic tropical and subtropical regions on earth (depending on where the specific butterfly is native to). Insect farming provides income for indigenous peoples, eliminates the burden on wild caught species/does not effect wild populations, and promotes the maintenance and care of natural environments rather than its exploitation, as is sometimes the case with agricultural businesses.
