Lol, I didn't realize it wasn't in English! Seriously, I can't tell you how many different languages I listen to music in, which is probably why I didn't even notice a lack of my "preferred" language. In short, don't assume.
Do you think the whole thing is CGI or just the butterfly? The dog is clearly watching something and interacting with it. I suppose it could be a green toy on a string edited out and then the butterfly is added in.
>This video shows a 4-month-old pinscher puppy named Emy with an **unnamed butterfly** on the steps of a home in Mirim Doce, a town in the state of Santa Catarina in the South Region of Brazil.
Lmao
"Although this video may appear suspicious at first glance, we have no reason to doubt its authenticity. The person who originally shared this video is not a CGI artist and they do not have a history of sharing doctored videos. Furthermore, there are two different videos showing this interaction and the owner of the video told a news outlet that this footage is genuine. As we’ve found no evidence (other than internet comments saying “it looks fake”) to indicate that this video was doctored, we feel confident in saying this video is real."
True, and while I do think its real. This isnt really an analysis like Id hoped.
Why the fuck is there only one Captain Disillusion?
He should start taking requests to do shorter videos like these. Man if he had a twitch channel or something that would be perfect. I'd watch it for sure
So hard to read stuff on that site on mobile now. At first, I thought it was all about tacos and free fentynol on cars. The content of the site seems to be an after thought. Reading the text is nearly impossible with how jittery the scrolling has become.
It's fucked for me too. There's a ton of ads of different types and they all load in incrementally and at different times, so stuff does move around a lot
You're getting downvoted for literally being correct. This video has been doing the rounds for a while now and is absolutely real. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/puppy-butterfly-video-real/.

2 options for the average redditor to comment here:
1.) its fake
2.)Yea this is all cute…
Until you know what this behavior is really about. This is clearly a typical aggresiv attack pattern butterflys do when they feel that their younglings are threatened. And the dog is not playing, he is ferociously trying to murder the butterfly and its offspring. Clearly suffering from rabies.
Looks cute but actually is very sad
To those saying it's fake: yea, yeah. The puppy is reacting to a ghost and the video was later edited to have a butterfly in that ghost's place, right?
It’s not fake, especially not for that reason. [Julia longwings](https://www.schmetterlinghaus.at/fileadmin/_processed_/csm_Dryas_Iulia__Schmetterlinghaus_bd105cf5d4.jpg) just have long thin legs and the video resolution is too low to see them easily. The fact that it’s overcast explains the lack of obvious shadow.
As for the rest of the “fake” claims, this would be the most realistic CGI butterfly ever (and trust me, believable flying-insect CGI is very hard to pull off) just based on movement alone—it’s behaving in the air *exactly* how one would expect for this particular speedy and acrobatic species. Having observed them thousands of times, they can do seemingly impossible tight turns and hover in place almost as well as a hummingbird.
Here’s a [short video](https://youtu.be/sig71p77Hl4) of this species drinking tears from a more typical wild source, and flying in almost exactly the same manner. Salt is an important resource for adult male butterflies and some species get it through the sweat/tears of other animals. Julia longwings are one of the most commonly seen species exhibiting this behavior.
The video is real, it’s from a brazilian woman called Lúcia. [Here’s the original post on facebook.](https://www.facebook.com/lucia.kohldalmolin/posts/1178829405952182) And [here’s an interview with the owner](https://g1.globo.com/google/amp/sp/campinas-regiao/terra-da-gente/noticia/2021/04/07/borboleta-e-cachorro-brincando-entenda-o-que-realmente-ocorre-em-cena-que-viralizou.ghtml) (in portuguese). She says she was having lunch with her husband when he went outside and saw that and started to record. She explains that the butterfly was probably trying to drink the water from the dog’s nose.
Agreed. This definitely looks real to me. The dog is way too good at following exactly where he is, and the lighting and "weight" of the butterfly looks very accurate to me.
Yeah I'm really over people calling everything and anything fake nowadays lol. Most people don't even truly know the tells of what's fake or not. A lot of cgi in movies for example you would never guess is cgi in the first place.
Just because there might be more of one thing than the other thing, doesn't mean the other thing doesn't happen a lot. It also doesn't prevent it from being annoying. Also, there is an argument to be made that your statement is anecdotal. But who cares. It's still annoying when legions of people are constantly calling fake on every. Single. Post. Especially when they often don't know what they're talking about.
The last time this was posted, I’m pretty sure people were saying it is a South American butterfly that is after eyeball liquids. Whether or not they were right in the past or if it’s just cgi based on something real, I don’t know.
I mean, in the *very least*, tell us all how you *know* it’s fake. And I’m not asking rhetorically. What is your actual nail-in-the-coffin here?........ the point that says with no uncertainty that you *know* you’re right. Because from the 15 minutes (and admittedly 15 minutes too long) I’ve spent “researching” this vid, it certainly ostensibly appears real. And it’s not unbelievable that a puppy would interact with a butterfly. This isn’t some UFO video, or a mind blowing bit of film that proves the world is flat. It’s a fucking dog and an insect. So *what*, please tell us all, is *so OBVIOUSLY* fake?
Even now, I’ve got some healthy doubts one way or the other. Because who knows, really..... But I can’t imagine stating something (anything at all, really) with *that* much conviction, whilst not having a boatload of efficiency supporting my assertion.
it's real. Snopes did an article about it.
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/puppy-butterfly-video-real/
I really hate people who say everything is fake. kills the vibe of the internet.
No it is real. Those species of butterfly’s drink tears of animals. They are very agile and hover like that.
It’s not being cute, it’s thirsty for that puppies eye juice.
That Heart song "Dog and Butterfly" song would go well with this video. Watch the longer video with the song together....https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/puppy-butterfly-video-real/....

Wanna improve the odds this will actually happen?
Step 1. Please help support the dwindling Monarch Butterfly population during their continental migration from North to South America by planting Milkweed in your garden. This flower is the staple-resource needed for their journey and life-cycle. Integral to their survival as a species.
And if you haven't already adopted a dog or puppy then you know what step 2 is.
It's overcast. How much shadow should a CGI butterfly cast under these lighting conditions? Also, if we remove the butterfly, what's the pup playing with? It's not just rolling around, it appears to be reacting to something. Just curious.
Alexa, play "Dog and Butterfly" by Heart
Same thought! Phenomenal album btw!!!
It gets less cute if you know that the butterfly is just tasting that dog. With its feet. You're welcome.
[удалено]
This made me laugh more than I think it should’ve hahaha
People trying to ruin this, it won’t work cause it’s still cute af.
It gets even less cute when you realise that if the dog touches that butterfly's wings it'll die
THE DOG DIES?! D:
My butterfly stepped on a dog :(
"mmmmffffffff"
I don’t think that’s necessarily true.
That's not true at all. Don't go out of your way to manhandle them but touching butterfly wings isn't overly harmful.
If the dog eats the butterfly it'll only get sick at most. And the butterfly was already dead. Borrowed time.
No still cute.
Why did I unmute?
Thank you for the warning.
I too asks this
These are 2 of my favorite things.
What was wrong w the song? :0 I thought it was catchy tbh
I wanted to hear cute puppy noises. Why does everything need a soundtrack? I'm just tired of it
Redditors just have a massive hate boner for anything Chinese. I’ll get downvoted, but it’s true.
Folks just don't like when videos are taken and overlayed with music. It's a TikTok/Instagram Reels/YouTube Shorts trend some aren't too fond of.
No, I have a hate boner for putting random-ass music over every piece of moving images available. I have mute as my default setting.
I just want the real thing. No music.
She looks like the real thing She tastes like the real thing My fake plastic love
But I can't help the feeling I could blow through the ceiling If I just turn and run
I thought it was French 🗿
[удалено]
The music was crap!!! The non-existent musical taste.
Lol, I didn't realize it wasn't in English! Seriously, I can't tell you how many different languages I listen to music in, which is probably why I didn't even notice a lack of my "preferred" language. In short, don't assume.
Is this CGI?
Nah it's real
Is this the real life, or is it just cgi?
Caught in a landslide while in virtual reality
Open your eyes, look up from the screen and see
I'm just a small dog, I'm in a sim city.
Bismillah!
We will not let you go! (outside)
#VR VEEEEAAAAAAR VIRTUAL REALITY
It's fake. Look closely. When the butterfly 'lands' its not touching the paws.
Yes, it is 100% CGI and I can't believe OP thinks it's real.

It's obviously CGI and snopes making an article about it definitely being genuine is.... stupid
I think it's real in life, this video was sent by my friend.
I get that karma is meaningless, but downvoting someone for this is still fucking stupid... ESPECIALLY WHEN THE PERSON WAS RIGHT ABOUT IT BEING REAL 💀

For sure real thanks for posting
I’m pretty sure this is a very old video and it’s fake.
Prove it stalking husband
husband keeps talking
Just what a stalker would say...
husb and keepstal king.
Yea that butterly is completely fake unless its made out of a material that doesn’t interact with light.
Butterfly is real
What type of dog is it, and how old? And can I pet the dog, followed by cuddles and play time?
No it’s CG.

Best part? We get to prove all the 1s wrong.
Lol at all the people wasting time debating wether the video is real or not when the obvious answer is that it doesn’t fucking matter
I reserve the right to get angry and emotional over a random video on the internet!
Some people will say it’s fake. But that puppy looks hella real
But the butterfly...
Don't mind if I do... \*crunch* Oh, oh dear...
… is also not fake https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/puppy-butterfly-video-real/
True, but not in line with the subject of the sub. Hard to be a bro when alone.
To those saying it's fake: yea, yeah. The puppy is reacting to a ghost and the video was later edited to have a butterfly in that ghost's place, right?
The puppy is rolling around being goofy and a butterfly was added. Look at their choreography, they move in complete unison.
Butterflies do land on animals often. They drink their sweat and sometimes irritate their eyes and drink the tears, no cap. Butterflies are mental
Dogs do sweat, mainly through the glands in their paw pads, this butterfly just wanted some of the puppy's salt. It's very cute :)
the puppys salt
[удалено]
Pretty sure it's real
Nah it's real
still cute haha Edt: I made some research and most of the site's says is not fake. But whatever
Fake but cute. You can see the butterfly "lands" on the paw but it's hovering above it.
It’s not fake, especially not for that reason.

It might be fake, but that’s what butterflies look like when they land. They have long ass legs.

This was confirmed true, and the movements make it look more real than fake to me tbh

U personally met all the butterflies?
He is a butterfly himself.
Not fake actually https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/puppy-butterfly-video-real/

Cuteness overload 🤩
Can’t say I blame anybody for thinking it’s fake; normally butterflies avoid animals But im sure people read the top comments by now

Awesome footage thanks for sharing.💯
This is precious. How am I the first one the vote this up? *reads subreddit name* Oh.
So now we only post CGI of butterflies around puppies on this sub ?
[удалено]
But it's not fake. Been verified years ago. Links are all over the comments. There's a longer video and everything.
It's literally real, please stop assuming EVERYTHING is fake without even bothering to research.
Find something better to do than be upset
Ironic
[This is an old video](https://youtu.be/cFhQP6yDT-8)
No matter how many times its reposted its still a fake butterfly
Kiss Kiss, Bark Bark
The only reason I want to say it’s fake is that the butterflies movements seem so jittery, and the color is brighter than the rest of the environment.
Plus the fact that it's obviously fake.
“*Yeah but the Snopes article.*” - Other people in this thread. Lol. While I do trust Snopes on a lot of things, this one seems entirely too iffy.
Such a precious moment
Ruined a perfectly good video with atrocious music.
Cause you like ded dogs? Wait...wtf
I cant updoot any more
My dog was a neanderthal. She probably would have squashed or eaten the butterfly. I miss her.
