I told my son about your comment, and he has a question for you: why do monarch butterflies like milkweed plants specifically?
It seems that they lay eggs only on milkweed plants. The caterpillars use the sap and leaves, which I think contains some toxic materials. This could be why Monarch Butterflies have their orange and black motif. Bright colors on creatures usually mean they are poisonous.
