: Arrow: One day the cat brought back a caterpillar "hairs" in its fur. As it was not moving we put it in a cheese box.

The next day she had lost her hair and looked like a cocoon.
When it has "hatched" we saw the female butterfly which remains close to its cocoon because at the moment of the hatching a "juice" flows which attracts the males.
We witnessed mating, laying in a corner of the wall which literally empties the abdomen of the female.

I took a few pictures (with the phone) and we found the name of the beast on the internet.

Thank you for your answers

And to you Citro for the links

What intrigues me is that since 1976 that I have been around, this is the second time that I have seen it, fifteen days apart.

An OCCC maybe ....
