A caterpillars is the larva of a butterfly, moth, or other insect. Most caterpillars are destroyed by weather or eaten by birds, reptiles, insects, and other animals. Any that are not killed will develop into a pupa stage, usually sheathed in a silken cocoon from which it will emerge as a fully grown adult insect.
