The butterfly heaven
The next point of our
trip was the butterfly haven, located in El Valle, here we had learned about
how do the butterflies classified, how do their colors can be varied and
visible, how many butterflies can we found in Panama and even what is the real
role or value they had to our environment.
About Butterflies
First of all the
butterflies can be classified in diurnal and nocturnal. The diurnals make their caterpillars by their own
skin, and the nocturnal make them from other elements of the environment. The
butterflies have 24000 eyes. They like the fermented nectar of the fruit, with
front legs they will verify the taste, with their antennas they will smell and
with their spirit they will suppress it. The colors of their wings al visible
just when the light reflect it, and the tissues of those are like scales, but
these kinds of tissue couldn't reborn when it break, that why we don't have to
touch it when they are exiting from the pupa (or chrysalis). The butterflies
are the only animal that complete the 4 steps of the cycle of metamorphosis.
