Butterfly Bio
Most butterflies only live a short time during warmer months. However, mourning cloaks hibernate as adults and then mate in early spring.

Slippery Sticks
Slippery elm trees are named for their inner bark, which is moist and slippery. American Indians used the bark to reduce swelling and take the venom out of a bite or sting. It is still used today to make throat lozenges.
