Ooh, I am not sure if you can without tearing it up. I know that you are supposed to pin the wings down shortly after they are dead or you will be in the situation you are in.

To reopen them you would have to "un-dry" the specimen to a point where you could open the wings. However, I cannot think of a way to do that without ruining the wings. What you may have to do it clip the wings off and make a display out of just them. I think I have seen that done before but I am not sure.

What kind of butterfly is it?
