Rec & Parks has been collecting rare Mission Blue butterflies on San Bruno Mountain and relocating them on Twin Peaks in an effort to repopulate the grasslands there. Meaning that the San Bruno natives will never see their old neighborhood again, as Rec & Parks tries to boost the Twin Peaks breeding population to 1980s-levels. There's a children's book about loss and rebirth in there somewhere. [via SF Examiner, photo (and more) from Chris Grinter/The Skeptical Moth]
