Watch a monarch caterpillar transform into a chrysalis, emerge as an adult and take its first flight! Monarch caterpillars feed on milkweed and develop through five instars, or growth stages, before forming a ‘J’ shape and transforming into a chrysalis. Observe the butterfly’s wing pattern through the green chrysalis as it darkens just before the adult emerges. After emerging, the butterfly pumps body fluid into its wings, allowing them to fully expand and harden, before taking its first flight.

Enjoy this incredible change from a caterpillar to a chrysalis for the Monarch butterfly, a 2 hour process in 2 minutes! ✨The gold spots on the monarch chrysalis aren't actually metal! They are created by two things working together: ✨Carotenoid pigments (the same stuff that makes carrots orange) absorbed from the caterpillar's milkweed diet ✨Intricate, raised structure on the shell that reflects light, creating the metallic gold shine—like a tiny, natural piece of jewelry! ✨ True or False?
