Insects are cold blooded.
Painted lady butterflies help the ecosystem by pollinating flowers as they feed on nectar. This pollination process is essential for the reproduction of many flowering plants. Additionally, painted lady caterpillars serve as food for insects and birds, contributing to the overall biodiversity of the ecosystem.
Because they are doing their makeup!

i raised a painted lady butterfly in grade 3 and they are like a inch or half a inch
Until the wings have straightened out and the butterflies can fly. They can fend for themselves then. ^^
Painted lady butterflies may push their thorax together as a form of communication or to regulate their body temperature. It could also be a way for them to prepare for flight or to signal distress.
Painted lady caterpillars do not sting. They are generally harmless to humans and do not possess stingers like some other insects. However, they may have spiny or hairy bodies that can cause mild irritation if handled, but this is not the same as a sting. It's best to observe them without direct contact.
