This is not a snake

This is a butterfly blowing your goddamn mind.

When the snake-mimicking butterfly (dynastor darius darius) builds it’s chrysalis for the transformation from caterpillar to butterfly it builds this crazy thing, a great attempt at keeping itself from getting attacked during the 13 days it takes for the transformation.

The end result is, sadly, much less snakeish

I’m terrified of the day where we have snakes disguised as butterflies.

Oh dear god. That is terrifying. Imagine how it would look when it starts to take off

Okay, I understand how evolution would make this thing more likely to survive if its cocoon looked like a snake... but how did it start to look like a snake in the first place? And how did it get better at looking like a snake.

I need Bill Nye or NDT in here.

I admit I was wondering the same thing
