The Truth About Butterfly Metamorphosis (It’s VERY WEIRD)
Check out @crashcourse Botany!
↓↓↓ More info and sources below ↓↓↓
Does any other creature on Earth undergo a life transformation as dramatic as the butterfly? I think not.

It’s time to dig into all the mind-blowing biology behind metamorphosis!
