| This photo shows the butterfly release at the Little League World Series US Championship game on August 25, 2001.
We released nearly 450 Eastern Monarchs. They were in 4 "cake box" release boxes and were released just after the national anthem at the beginning of the game. The IBBA was specifically credited for donating and arranging the release. All butterflies were tagged with Monarch Watch tags. |

We've now had a mass release at a national sporting event. Not bad... Steve Connolley |
