Maybe what was lost in sheer length above was
that I don't know what to do. I have a very much alive firefly that may not be able to lay eggs, and she is trapped in a body that can't function normally anymore. Should I just euthanize her, just because there is no precedent for any documented removal of eggs by human hands? Do I just let them persist and languish in potential agony to see if the damage repairs slowly? And what about the male? He was just unlucky and is on this voyage of the damned with no outcome riding on him like fertile eggs. Should I just euthanize him with separate considerations?
These are the things I face in the immediate future. I believe it to be inhumane to leave them in limbo for much longer. I can't do this on my own as I am now.
