At 5:17, the caterpillar's like "Yes, the old skin's free!" Then it gets ready to morph while inside the chrysalis shell.

@ninhaxable DNA is pretty smart? Where'd it learn that?

@MiddleEasternKeyboad: You are most welcome. :-) It is amazing to me, too.

Amazing! Thanks for sharing.

It sure takes a while for the monarch caterpillar to go into the chrysalis. I once saw a painted lady caterpillar go into the pupa stage, and it took only a minute to shed its skin and shake it off!

@wileyk209zback I suppose weather and air temperature affect a caterpillar's progress. Also I wonder how well fed and healthy the little guy was. Was the caterpillar fat and happy or did he run out of milkweed too soon. Each one is unique. Thanks for your comments!

This is one amazing creature. Such a beautiful piece of art. I personally find it sad that people discredit this as a coincidence or just a fluke mixture of cells/chemicals over "billions" of years... I think if we REALLY believed that deep down inside, we would all go crazy and there would be no order. What would be the point of anything we do on a daily basis?

I had a lot of questions about this today and did a lot of reading about it but this really made me understand it. just simply amazing. and no this is not " gods creation " this is evolution and just showing how DNA can evolve into anything it needs to be!

@ninhaxable Thank you! It warms my heart to read that the video was helpful to you. Metamorphosis is a difficult and complicated process for the little insect. Monarchs are in trouble. Plant milkweed and nectar flowers for them if you live in their range.
