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.

After emerging, the butterfly pumps body fluid into its wings, allowing them to fully expand and harden, before taking its first flight.
