It is a truly amazing stage of the life cycle. The outer case is hard and it stays still, but inside the caterpillar is changing its body into a moth or butterfly. The pupa may be attached to a leaf or twig or be buried underground. Sometimes there is a silk cocoon around the pupa to protect it.

Its wings spread out, dry and harden ready for flight. It is ready to find a mate and so the life cycle starts all over again. Most adult moths are short-lived, some for only a few days. Others survive for many months and some even hibernate over winter (like hedgehogs and tortoises).
