2. Final Presentation to the guests of the Butterfly Jungle
2.1. Once the discussion has ended and more notes have been taken, together they will create a presentation explaining the life cycle of a butterfly. They will present their presentation to the guests of the Butterfly Jungle at the San Diego Zoo to ensure the caterpillars survive to become beautiful butterflies!
