The life span of the butterfly
varies - small species may live for several days whilst others may live
for a few months.

Butterflies don't grow -
it is the caterpillar that does the growing. When the caterpillar
pupates, the butterfly's size is already determined.

Butterflies just don't eat
nectar alone....some butterflies suck up moisture from wet sand, animal
droppings, rotting vegetables, sap from trees and dead animals!
