butterflies

how long do butterflies live?

Answer #1

It varies from one butterfly species to another, the maximum being 11 months (I believe it’s the Mourning Cloak with the longest life span).

General varieties usually live from a few days to about 2 weeks if they die naturally (not by predators, etc.)
