Its sad when they get to the end of their life and this starts to happen to their wings
Yes, and it only takes a couple weeks even in captivity from what I understand. Thank you for commenting!

I have only seen in in monarchs when they are in season here, it makes it easier for the cats to catch them, so I have to make an effort to save them. The very worst ones I put out of their misery, nothing that flies to survive should be grounded
