The National Butterfly Center is closing down indefinitely after facing years of harassment from right-wing groups. 

Dallas, February 5 (RHC)-- In Mission, Texas, the National Butterfly Center is closing down indefinitely after facing years of harassment from right-wing groups. 

In 2019, the conservation center sued the Donald Trump administration and the group We Build the Wall to prevent construction of the U.S.-Mexico border wall on its property.  Right-wing groups proceeded to smear the National Butterfly Center and started a conspiracy theory that the nonprofit facilitates human trafficking and sex trafficking. 

The National Butterfly Center says it hopes to reopen as soon as it becomes safe for its staff and visitors.
