Butterfly facts about the blue morpho butterflies


Blue Morphos would never be good pets because they need to live in the tropical rainforests of Central and South America where there is a humidity level of 70-88% and an average temperature of 85 degrees Fahrenheit (40 degrees Celsius). They live in the canopy layer but often venture into the forest floor. They do this in order to find the rotten fruits they like to drink the juice from. The two most interesting facts about their feeding are that they taste food with their legs and that they are cannibals as caterpillars. Their cannibalism is their only threat.
Blue Morpho Butterflies have several predators. They are: baby jaguars that kill them thinking it's all a game, birds, and fish when they are near water. But their worst nightmare are humans like you and me who venture into their peaceful habitat to catch them and sell them in glass cases to people who will hang them on a wall and won't even care when it falls and breaks. Through out the centuries they have fought for survival.
