But that's just a li'l baby. As we all know, once it grows up, it will be quite large.

Well, half-seriously.
And we almost sorta thought about maybe half-seriously supporting it. But then Ambassador Barfanger sobered up. ;)

And if they're not endangered then they obviously don't need to be protected.

On the other hand, butterflies are international travelers, and thus should be provided with UN protection, diplomatic immunity (no searching their pouches) and of course the ability not to have to pay parking tickets.
Moths on the other hand, are an international menace!
Moths on the other hand, are an international menace!And Crane flies (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crane_fly) - those things sponsor international terrorism!
But...

On the other hand, if you add them to the World Heritage List (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/World_Heritage_List), they'll be "protected from logging, mining and other environmentally-damaging activities"!
No mining the butterfies!

There's no need for you to fear. Disable the lift and run up the stairs.
(Or if you are a butterfly, fly up the stairs.)

New and disturbing research (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/2/2c/Flyingdalek.jpg) has indicated that Daleks can actually E-LE-VATE themselves. So that wouldn't really help.
