We learned at school that the butterfly develops from the caterpillar after pupation, but other insects also undergo a major transformation.
The Hercules beetle is inferred from its name alone. So much so that the caterpillar is the size of a human palm.
We have seen the process of transformation in textbooks, but perhaps never so spectacularly. Even the size of the beetle is amazing and the whole process is impressive. It’s like the monster-born of a movie comes to life.
The end result is still beautiful.
