Life Cycle of the Butterfly

Butterflies mate for 20-24 hours. After this the male dies. The life cycle takes about three and a half months. The life expectancy varies from species to species.

Stage 1: Egg

Stage 2: Caterpillar



Stage 3: Pupa (Behind our guide you can see a board where they hung all the pupae to keep them safe. Here the butterflies could hatch and dry their wings.)



Stage 4: Butterfly
