This is our bilateral gynandromorphic butterfly.
The rarest animal and butterfly in the entire collection.

I love how darn excited you are about everything! You’re so passionate and so happy and excited to teach. And I’m SO glad I just found this channel.

the fact i know most of those butterflies from Animal Crossing is either impressive or embarrassing 😭

i noticed the butterfly was asymmetric, but as soon as you mentioned northern cardinals i knew exactly why it was so special. This is incredibly cool and im not surprised in the slightest that theres only one specimen like it.

my uncle also had a buttefly or moth that was half male half female. Back when i was a child i can remember him showing me and saying several museums wanted the specien for their collection. we have no idea what happened to the butterfly or moth as when he passed away no one could remember what species it was and when his collection was examined it couldnt be identified. It might even be in one of the displays that are still in the family.

Now I understand! When I was younger I saw a swallowtail butterfly with one yellow wing and the other was black. It looked awesome! But I had no idea it was half male, half female. Incredible.

I very much enjoyed the sequence of you explaining how it all connected. Add that to your enthusiasm when talking about it makes the video so good!

I love the one at 0:27, the lines on the wings look like closed eyes!

[olli]

6:46 it's super easy to see! the outer wing tips for both top and bottom pairs, not just the bottom pair. so both the top left and bottom left are female and top right and bottom right are male. so it's split laterally lol. very interesting!

If my school lessons had been structured like this, I would've paid a lot more attention in school. I don't even know anything about butterflies other than they are bugs with wings, but I still ended up watching this video!

[tinyred]

I couldn't help but also notice that the frontal female side wing has that cluster of spots in a black splotch on the tip, while the male side doesn't.
Man this stuff is hella cool.

[Ataro]

I knew all about the difference between male and female monarch butterflies because my passion for the last 5 years has been gathering eggs from my milkweed and raising and releasing monarch butterflies.. I know this isn’t a video talking about the monarchs but even you releasing this video is educating people about butterflies. Thank you.

This has become my new favorite channel to watch on YouTube. I love learning everything and anything I can about animals

[Bagelbug]

I remember seeing a photo of a cardinal with both male and female sides, cool to finally know what that’s called!

[writehse]

I’m probably not alone on this don’t care about butterflies, but your enthusiasm is what keeps me watching and gets me interested
