This is a video of a monarch caterpillar forming its chrysalis in anticipation of metamorphosing into a beautiful butterfly. It’s weird how all its stripes come off. You know, I wish I could hang out in a cocoon for two weeks straight and emerge a butterfly. Unfortunately, I can’t, although I did zip myself up in a sleeping bag for over 60 hours once with nothing but a bag of Bugles and an empty Gatorade bottle (wide mouth) to pee in. Sadly, I did not emerge a butterfly, just a really dehydrated version of myself with Bugle fingers.

Keep going for the video.
