Watch the chrysalis transform into colorful butterflies and witness their first flight. Every week, in the museum's tropical mountain greenhouse, over 300 chrysalises will be welcomed into special "nurseries", a protected environment where it will be possible to observe their hatching.
The project was born with the collaboration of AMEAP (Asociación de Mujeres Ecológicas y Artesanas de El Porvenir), an association of women who raise butterflies in a small community in the north of Costa Rica, and with the advice of Francesco Barbieri, a biologist specializing in entomology, scientific director and founder of the company that manages the Butterfly House of Bordano (UD).
