I had Atala one year( 2018) I had plenty of coontie plants but I suspect a nearby butterfly exhibit might have had a couple escapee. Otherwise never to be seen again.

What you are saying is biblical as well.
Proverbs 22:1 A good name is to be chosen rather than great wealth; To be respected is better than silver and gold.

An entire colony of Zebra longwings were killed off from adulticide spray that the county sprayed for mosquitoes. They were roosting in the trees. I requested to be a no spray zone but it doesn't matter๐Ÿ˜ก

A hunger strike will do nothing. The evil ba$tards will encourage it. ๐Ÿ˜ก

I worked for snake oil consultants. One PharmD was able to con the best of the best MDs. The hustle extended far beyond vitamins and supplements. It was shameful.๐Ÿ˜ก Entire conventions of cons celebrating their MLM scams. Just like the colonic therapy they are all full of ๐Ÿ’ฉ.
