ryanad 2000 Do caterpillars even have the nerves to feel pain? Actually even if they did, id be very surprised if the nerves didn't sort of shut down as or before the process began since there's no need to receive those pain signals and all. Seems it would be counter productive for their own bodies to discourage via pain what the body wants and needs to do.
I just noticed that I haven't seen a caterpillar for 7 years

+Ayverie Ablaze Last year I drove home from school with my bike, and I passed by the old airport outside of town. The street I was driving is straight and two-laned, and there are some apple trees and lots of scrawny and thorny bushes on the sides, otherwise there's not much but plain fields. So I was driving along this street in late spring, and when I looked to my right, for a moment I thought it had snowed, because the bushes were all covered in a white sheen. But then I remembered that it was almost summer, and I got off my bike and looked again. I was first HORRIFIED, then amazed, because every single one of those bushes was in fact covered in spiderwebs, only it weren't spiderwebs, because inside of them, there was a writhing mass of TENS OF THOUSANDS of dark larvaes from whatever butterfly species that was. The branches were so covered in them that I couldn’t see them anymore at parts. I could downright watch the creatures as they ate the bushes bare, and when I shook a branch slightly, batches of the larvaes would fall to the ground. I was simultaneously grossed out, creeped out and also amazed, because I had never seen such a massive hatching in my life. There must've been hundreds of thousands of larvaes on all the bushes together. I never thought I would once be able to witness this and probably won't again.

The Monarch butterfly is becoming extinct. I use to see them as a child too. I read they're being killed by Round Up Weed killer. Monarch butterfly only eats milkweed. But, when it rains and someone has used weed killer, it goes systemically into the Butterfly milkweed. The worm eats it and is killed. I use to use weed killer until I read the article. Now against it. It goes into the ocean eventually too. All the chemicals that are killing the Beautiful Monarch butterfly & what more? I would like My grandkids to experience nature like I did. At this rate there won't be any by the time they grow up & have kid's. I have a Butterfly garden with milkweed. I plant it in pots so no poison gets to them. The amount of eggs is amazing but, the chances of them survival is the knowledge of pesticides and what it does to nature. Wildlife too is so close to extinction too. Buy some milkweed from the nursery's & plant them in a safe area. Mine grow year round in southern California. They use to migrate to Mexico but they are chopping up the Forest's there. it's so rare to see one & the pure magic of nature and how they go through all the different levels of life to be a Butterfly is amazing. Help the Butterfly, monarch butterfly if you live in warmer climates. It's a great feeling to give LIFE!!

No. The "goop" is specially evolved to from a butterfly, and only a butterfly. Getting it to from anything else like, say, a puppy, would be no less difficult that simply trying to create a puppy from raw materials rather than breeding existing dogs. You'd need a completely different set of enzymes an nucleic acids.

Ok this video is genuinely 100 percent brilliant! I love flutterbys, i think most folk do, but i never knew it went through so much to turn into the butterflies we see around us, i simply thought the caterpillar grew wings and legs etc, while in its pupa stage, i had no idea it turns into liquid (within only 10 days???? wow, i mean, WOW!) and then transforms into the pretty little things we see each summertime, i am genuinely amazed by this, actually this video has made my day, and it is most certainly one f your best videos thus far, which is incredible considering your videos are of such high quality anyway, the information you provide is simply astounding, well done thoughty2, i will now look at flutterbys in a completely new light!
