This phenomenon, where butterflies congregate in large numbers, is known as Mud Puddling. A video showing such a gathering has recently gone viral, capturing the hearts of netizens. 💖

📹 This viral video was shared by IFS officer Parveen Kaswan on social media, captioned "Mud Puddling." In the video, you can see a large group of butterflies gathering on muddy ground, collecting salts and minerals. This behavior is called "Mud Puddling."
