Explore the Butterfly - Did you know?
1. The Monarch butterfly is a cold-blooded insect. It relies on the sun to warm its body in order to travel the many miles ahead of it. Each morning, you can find the butterfly quietly basking in the sun.
2. Butterflies begin their life as very tiny eggs. Growing into caterpillars, they start their transformation forming a chrysalis with their body. While it appears to be a restful time in the chrysalis, a lot is going on. Juices inside the caterpillar are used to break down the body and change it into a beautiful butterfly. This process takes anywhere from two weeks to several months, depending on the species.
3. Monarch butterflies are poisonous. They won’t harm humans, but the toxic chemicals from the milkweed plant that they eat when they are caterpillars build up inside of them and give them a defense against predators like frogs, birds, mice, and lizards.
4. In ancient Greek, psyche means both butterfly and soul. This is symbolic of the earthly body, eventually growing into something much greater.
