A monarch caterpillar can die in the pupa stage due to various factors, including disease, environmental stress, or improper conditions. If the pupa experiences extreme temperatures, humidity fluctuations, or exposure to toxins, it may not develop properly and can succumb during metamorphosis. Additionally, parasitic infections or bacterial diseases can also lead to mortality in this vulnerable stage.
