Butterflies
Butterflies are some of the most interesting insects on the planet Earth. There
are more than seventeen thousand different kinds of butterflies! Butterflies
come in all shapes and sizes.
Butterflies go through four main stages of life. The first stage is the egg stage
followed by the larva stage. As a larva, or caterpillar, the future butterfly eats as
much as possible. As it grows, it sheds it outer skin, or exoskeleton. This may
happen four or five times. After a few weeks, the caterpillar enters the next stage
of its life, the chrysalis stage. In the chrysalis, the caterpillar will liquefy into a
soup of living cells. Then, it will reorganize into a butterfly and the
metamorphosis is complete. In later parts of the chrysalis stage, you can see the
forming butterfly through the chrysalis.
When the butterfly emerges from the chrysalis, it pumps its wings to send blood
through them so that it can fly. Most butterflies only live a couple of weeks, just
enough time to drink flower nectar and to mate. Some, like the Monarch
Butterfly, however, may live many months.
