Life of Monarch - Project Urban Wildlife

The ChatGPT answers better than me. I used AskGPT.app.
The life cycle of a monarch butterfly is a fascinating journey that consists of four main stages: egg, larva (caterpillar), pupa (chrysalis), and adult butterfly. The female monarch lays her eggs on the leaves of milkweed plants, which serve as the primary food source for the hatching caterpillars. After about 3-10 days, the larvae emerge and begin to feed voraciously, growing rapidly through several molts. Once they reach their full size, they form a chrysalis, where they undergo metamorphosis for about 10 days. Finally, the adult monarch emerges, displaying its striking orange and black wings. These butterflies migrate thousands of miles to warmer climates for winter, showcasing their extraordinary navigation skills.
