The “transformation” of a caterpillar into a butterfly is a wonderful process |
The caterpillars eat the leaves where they live and grow, then pupate. In the cocoon, the pupa develops into a butterfly and then rubs its back against the cocoon until it punctures to become a butterfly and then flies out.
Below are a series of impressive photos before and after “the caterpillar turned into a butterfly”:
