This article gives an in-depth look at the the reason why these creatures are slowly dieing off. Butterfly Conservation and the Center For Ecology and Hydrology have discovered a huge decline in almost 3/4 of the butterfly species in the United Kingdom. Even the common species have seen a fall of about 25% of their populations. The reason for this is simple, we humans continue to expand or towns and cities which gives these creatures less room to live in. It's a sad fact of life, the dominate species always prevails. However all hope is not lost for the creatures. Groups like the ones I mentioned earlier are having some success in repopulating them to the UK.
