    I remember in Kindergarten, my teacher bought a couple of caterpillars online, as well as food and a cage. I remember every day we would check their progress, and when they started the process of metomorphosis, the entire class (including me) were amazed. Then I think it was a few weeks before school let off, they hatched and on the last day of school we released them. I will never forget that experience!

    Insects go through the most incredible changes between infancy and adulthood. The pupal stage is particularly amazing. Inside the pupa's shell is goop with DNA. That's it. The larval animal that went into that shell is no more. It dissolved. Essentially, it died. Soon, the goop reorganizes itself into something totally different, and soon after that, the adult insect emerges, looking totally unrecognizable compared to its previous form.

    When I was like 6 I was so captivated by butterflies that my mom got me this little kit thing and it was sent with a little book on how to find and safely handle a monarch caterpillar and what time to look for them. I found one and it came with some milkweed leaves and I let this thing hang in this little expandable habitat with sticks and leaves in it and I would watch this little dude eat leaves. And finally the moment had arrived, I come home to a cocoon. I could hardly contain myself I watched for days waiting for the butterfly to emerge. He did, I released him back into the wild.
    I don't know why I'm saying all of this. But, it really stuck out to me how nature could be so complex and beautiful. Of course, at that age, I just knew that Nature was pretty and it should be kept that way. My mom did the same thing with Ladybugs and I also once hatched a praying mantis egg sack... except that I did not properly seal the habitat and they all came out and almost completely covered one wall in the house. We got most of them out into the yard safely, though. I always thought that I'd be an entomologist one day. I never really followed that dream. I still love this stuff, though. I hope I can provide the same kind of enjoyment and understanding of the beauty of nature to my son who was just born 5 months ago.

      Isn't it kind of sad when people actively make fun of others who are in a state of awe when observing the absolute beauty of nature?
      It's such a shame that people can have such a low, pitiful state of consciousness that they have to take a shit on other's perspective just to feel better about their own.
      I don't personally believe in what is by and large called "God" in this world... it just doesn't make sense to me. BUT, if believing in God helps you make sense of the world, helps you to see the beauty of life, or helps make you a better person at all or treat others better, then please please please keep believing in God, the world is a better place with you & your God in it.... THANK YOU for believing in God.
      And to those who would make fun of these people...I sincerely hope that some day you learn to stop trying to compare dick sizes & grow the fuck up.
      Literally nobody is impressed by your so called "superior intelligence". You are not adding one iota of positivity to the fabric of life. The Universe looks down on you in shame & pity.
      You would be wise to learn from the caterpillar here:
      Go into your cocoon of self-indulgent immaturity, then transform. Emerge into the adult that the Universe would prefer you to become.

    The Monarch butterfly is amazing from birth to death. The metamorphosis itself, along with their 4 generations, where the last one makes that great migration. I’m fortunate to live where I see them often throughout the summer. Last year on my back deck, one hatched from its cocoon and flew just a short distance, sat on my knee drying its new wings. What an awesome sight that was to see such a young one so close. And eventually he flew away, now free to explore the sky.

      Well think of it more likethis. The caterpillar is sheddingand this is what happens under their skin. In the new shedded form, they become a chrysalis again. They shed again later on as a butterfly.
      Basically they transform on the inside and burst out when the time is right

      Insects' skin doesn't grow with them as they age like ours does; they have to grow a second layer of skin under their current one and, when they become large enough that their current skin becomes too tight, they shed it through muscular action, kinda like how buff guys can make their clothes explode off of them by flexing. While the new skin is still wet and elastic, they puff themselves up with air before it sclerotizes (hardens) to maximize the amount of growth they can achieve until they have to molt again.

    This is so amazing. A caterpillar can make grow thousands of times bigger than it's original size, try to evade bacteria or predators, and create a pupa just turn into a soup. Then, if it's lucky, it turns into a butterfly and only lives either one month or one year. And all I've accomplished in a year is eating, sleeping, and getting through school.

    Fun fact! You can tell a Monarch butterfly's sex by their wings. Males have a spot, females do not. The one in the lab setting that emerged was female and the one on the flower was male.
    Wayyyy back in elementary school we did a whole lesson on Monarchs and kept them in our classroom from caterpillar to butterfly to release later on. These are fascinating little creatures.
