CALLED METAMORPHOSIS WHERE THEIR BODIES TRANSFORM
AS THEY GROW. FOR ALL BUTTERFLIES, IT HAPPENS IN FOUR
STAGES. LETS FOLLOW A MONARCH THROUGH THE STAGES! Most adult butterflies feed on nectar,
a sugary liquid made by flowers. The
butterfly uses its proboscis [pro-boss-is]
like a straw to slurp it up. SOME BUTTERFLIES SIP LIQUIDS FROM
