David Attenborough witnesses the moment a caterpillar transforms into a beautiful butterfly!
Caterpillars are the larval stage of members of the order Lepidoptera. As with most common names, the application of the word is arbitrary, since the larvae of sawflies are commonly called caterpillars as well. Both lepidopteran and symphytan larvae have eruciform body shapes
From Micro Monsters with David Attenborough Season 1 Episode 1, "Conflict": Right beneath our feet is a secret world of disguise and espionage, social networking and courtship, rape and pillage, parenthood and relationships. Sir David Attenborough investigates how macroscopic residents outwit their enemies to survive.
Micro Monsters is a series narrated and hosted by Sir David Attenborough, who takes viewers deep into the world of bugs. Pioneering macroscopic techniques allow Attenborough to explore in unparalleled detail the intricate, sophisticated behaviours of fascinating creatures and the complexity of the environments they build and inhabit, in a world normally hidden from the human eye. Each of the three episodes explore a different aspect of the little-known lives of insects, from the deceptive defensive mechanisms harboured by spiders and scorpions, to the creation of colonies and how social arrangements develop.

So many questions! But mainly... Does the caterpillar have a gender before it butterflies itself? Or does it not bother with that since all it has to do is eat? Also, I wonder how caterpillars know when they're fat enough to butterfly. Is it an instinct based on weather, or is it a body weight thing that triggers it? Do they all butterfly at the same time like cicadas surfacing, or does it happen in waves of fledglings throughout a season? These videos are too short!!

I love postman butterflies! They have to be my favorite butterflies, caterpillars and chrysalises alongside monarch butterflies, swallowtail butterflies and blue morpho butterflies and my family and I visited those butterflies and their chrysalises at the Butterfly Vivarium at the Glider Center at the AMNH last June. They had no caterpillars though, but the Insect Lab downstairs had silkworms and hornworms which become via silk cocoons and pupas moths like domestic silk moths and hawkmoths but not butterflies. Before summer ends my family and I should visit monarch butterflies, tiger swallowtails, painted ladies and their caterpillars and chrysalis in a meadow and observe, film and take notes on them and visit butterflies and caterpillars and chrysalises at the butterfly pavilion at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County when we visit Southern California this August.

Is fascinating how many insects just know how to fly the moment their wings are ready. but i guess we can do so if we have super strong muscles and a exoskeleton, then is just keep flapping the wings till airborne and no worries of falling.

@@iraceruk Of course. In fact, the process of the sperm uniting with the egg and becoming a human child nine months later is even more mind blowing than the process of a caterpillar transforming into a butterfly. It stretches the bounds of credulity that both of these processes come about strictly through random chance and long periods of time. To me, believing in darwinian evolution takes far more faith than believing a creator, an intelligence, is behind these incredible processes.
