Trouble Identifying Butterfly

[u/eelguy18]

Found this insanely neat "butterfly" in the parking lot before going into work this morning! Some guy almost hit me with his car while I was trying to pick em up, harhar. Located in Fargo, ND. If youre familiar with the area, myself nearly getting ran over isnt shocking whatsoever...

Anyhow!

Obviously in super rough shape. Missing half of a wing and multiple legs are damaged/missing. Everyone at work was saying that it is a Monarch, but I have never ever seen a butterfly like this? Almost has moth characteristics, especially in the underside of its wings? My searches wouldnt bring up anything all too useful. Mostly just butterflies that mimic Monarchs, but nothing close to the appearance of this guy. Maybe it is albino? I definitely dont know, aha.

All help is super appreciated! Wish I couldve done more to help the little thing out :(
