::stage Egg:: When it's time for a mother African goliath beetle to lay her eggs, she digs a hole in the rich dirt of the rainforest. But unlike your parents, the mother African goliath beetle doesn't stick around to take care of the eggs. It can take the eggs up to two weeks to hatch underground. At this point, wiggly larvae start to appear. ::stage Larvae:: African goliath beetle larvae (pronounced lar-VEE) look like fat, squishy worms with no eyes. But the larva don't need to see at this point because they will live underground in the dark for several months. The larvae eat and grow, getting bigger and bigger. The larva are at their heaviest during this stage and can weigh about one quarter of a pound, which is around the same as twenty quarters! And African goliath beetle larvae can grow to be around five inches long, too - that's a little longer than a soda can. ::stage Pupae:: After the larvae have finished growing, they dive deeper underground and use the soil and their spit to make a thin case, like a butterfly makes a cocoon. The larva become pupae (pronounced PEW-pee) and will rest inside their case for several months as their bodies change and grow long legs, wings and a hard outer shell called an exoskeleton. Once the rainy season starts and enough water drips through the soil to reach the now fully grown African goliath beetles, they crawl out of their cases in the soil and fly off. ::stage Adult:: Once they pop out of the ground and take off, adult African goliath beetles look for mates. After a mother beetle has found a partner and is ready to lay her eggs, she digs a hole in the ground and the whole life cycle starts all over again. | In the pupae stage, they crawl out of their cases in the soil and fly off. | entailment | indicator |

Black widow spiders mate in spring and early summer. The male black widow spider is about half the size of the female. Though the female black widow does sometimes eat her mate after breeding, this is not always or even usually the case. When the female black widow does feed on her mate it is because she is low in nutrients and needs the energy. After mating, the female black widow weaves a round or pear shaped nest of silk into which she deposits her eggs. The web of the black widow is random and messy looking, not symmetrical and neat like some spiders. Female black widows can mate and lay three or more egg sacs a season. Hundreds of eggs are laid in each egg sac. The mother black widow guards the egg sac for up to a month until it hatches. When the baby spiders hatch they begin to eat one another for nutrients, so only a few from each egg sac survive. The baby survivors leave the egg sac within a couple of days of hatching. When the baby spiders leave they often 'balloon'. The baby spiders spin a long filament of web and it catches a breeze and floats them away from home. The baby spiders molt several times over the summer and fall. Over winter the baby spiders mature. In the spring the mature spiders are ready to find their own mates and start the cycle over again. Most black widows live only one year, but they can live up to three years. | In the egg stage, it balloons | not_entailment | indicator |

When the baby spiders hatch they begin to eat one another for nutrients, so only a few from each egg sac survive. The baby survivors leave the egg sac within a couple of days of hatching. When the baby spiders leave they often 'balloon'. The baby spiders spin a long filament of web and it catches a breeze and floats them away from home. The baby spiders molt several times over the summer and fall. Over winter the baby spiders mature. In the spring the mature spiders are ready to find their own mates and start the cycle over again. Most black widows live only one year, but they can live up to three years. | In the baby spider stage, it mates | not_entailment | indicator |
Black widow spiders mate in spring and early summer. The male black widow spider is about half the size of the female. Though the female black widow does sometimes eat her mate after breeding, this is not always or even usually the case. When the female black widow does feed on her mate it is because she is low in nutrients and needs the energy. After mating, the female black widow weaves a round or pear shaped nest of silk into which she deposits her eggs.

::stage egg:: It all starts when a female butterfly lays her eggs, usually on leaves or stems of plants. Inside these tiny eggs, caterpillars grow. Depending on the species, the eggs can vary in shape and texture - they can be round, oval or cylindrical, and smooth, bumpy or wrinkled. The time it takes for the eggs to hatch can also vary - in some species, they will hatch within a few weeks and in others they will only hatch once the weather is warm enough. ::stage caterpillar:: Once ready, the caterpillar leaves its egg home and enters the big outside world! And these little critters have one serious appetite - the caterpillars actually eat their way out of the egg and immediately start chomping on the leaves of the host plant. During this stage, they shed their skin four or five times - as the caterpillar grows, its skin becomes too tight and splits open, revealing a new, larger skin underneath. A fully grown caterpillar can be over 100 times larger than when it emerged from its egg. Wow! ::stage pupa:: Once fully grown, the caterpillar forms itself into a 'pupa' (or chrysalis) - a kind of vessel in which the caterpillar changes into a butterfly. The caterpillars usually do this on twigs or safe, hidden areas around the host plant. The 'pupa' stage may last a few weeks to several months depending on the species. During this time, a hardened case forms around the pupa to protect it from predators and extreme weather conditions. And inside, the tissue, limbs and organs of the caterpillar transform. The result? A wonderful winged butterfly! ::stage adult:: Once the butterfly is ready to emerge, the case around the pupa splits open. But it's not time for the adult butterfly to take off just yet, as the wings are at first wet, soft and wrinkled against its body. The butterfly waits for its wings to dry, and pumps a liquid called hemolymph into them so that they become big and strong. Once fit for flight, this brilliant bug then takes to the air in search for flowers to feed on and for other butterflies to mate with. And that's the cycle complete - and ready to start all over again! | In the caterpillar stage, it feeds | entailment | indicator |

::stage egg:: It all starts when a female butterfly lays her eggs, usually on leaves or stems of plants. Inside these tiny eggs, caterpillars grow. Depending on the species, the eggs can vary in shape and texture - they can be round, oval or cylindrical, and smooth, bumpy or wrinkled. The time it takes for the eggs to hatch can also vary - in some species, they will hatch within a few weeks and in others they will only hatch once the weather is warm enough. ::stage caterpillar:: Once ready, the caterpillar leaves its egg home and enters the big outside world! And these little critters have one serious appetite - the caterpillars actually eat their way out of the egg and immediately start chomping on the leaves of the host plant. During this stage, they shed their skin four or five times - as the caterpillar grows, its skin becomes too tight and splits open, revealing a new, larger skin underneath. A fully grown caterpillar can be over 100 times larger than when it emerged from its egg. Wow! ::stage pupa:: Once fully grown, the caterpillar forms itself into a 'pupa' (or chrysalis) - a kind of vessel in which the caterpillar changes into a butterfly. The caterpillars usually do this on twigs or safe, hidden areas around the host plant. The 'pupa' stage may last a few weeks to several months depending on the species. During this time, a hardened case forms around the pupa to protect it from predators and extreme weather conditions. And inside, the tissue, limbs and organs of the caterpillar transform. The result? A wonderful winged butterfly! ::stage adult:: Once the butterfly is ready to emerge, the case around the pupa splits open. But it's not time for the adult butterfly to take off just yet, as the wings are at first wet, soft and wrinkled against its body. The butterfly waits for its wings to dry, and pumps a liquid called hemolymph into them so that they become big and strong.

A fully grown caterpillar can be over 100 times larger than when it emerged from its egg. Wow! ::stage pupa:: Once fully grown, the caterpillar forms itself into a 'pupa' (or chrysalis) - a kind of vessel in which the caterpillar changes into a butterfly. The caterpillars usually do this on twigs or safe, hidden areas around the host plant. The 'pupa' stage may last a few weeks to several months depending on the species. During this time, a hardened case forms around the pupa to protect it from predators and extreme weather conditions. And inside, the tissue, limbs and organs of the caterpillar transform. The result? A wonderful winged butterfly! ::stage adult:: Once the butterfly is ready to emerge, the case around the pupa splits open. But it's not time for the adult butterfly to take off just yet, as the wings are at first wet, soft and wrinkled against its body. The butterfly waits for its wings to dry, and pumps a liquid called hemolymph into them so that they become big and strong. Once fit for flight, this brilliant bug then takes to the air in search for flowers to feed on and for other butterflies to mate with.

::stage egg:: It all starts when a female butterfly lays her eggs, usually on leaves or stems of plants. Inside these tiny eggs, caterpillars grow.

::stage Egg:: Would you believe that crocodiles can be sweet and caring? Although crocodiles are typically aggressive predators, they nurture and care for their babies before and after their birth. A female crocodile lays her eggs in a hole she makes along a riverbed or the shoreline, nearly two months after mating. This is called nesting, which is the process of building a shelter to deposit the eggs in while they develop towards hatching. The number of eggs the crocodile lays varies on the species of crocodile. (Species are a group of living things that can make more of itself. In total, there are fourteen species of crocodiles found around the world.) For example, the Nile crocodile deposits anywhere between 25 and 80 eggs, the saltwater crocodile lays 40-60 eggs, and the American crocodile 30-70 eggs. Unlike most reptiles, who leave after depositing their eggs, the work of crocodile parents is far from being over. For the next three months, the female crocodile closely guards the eggs and the male stays nearby to protect the female and her eggs from predators. ::stage Young:: Have you ever had a friend who looks just like their parents, only smaller? This stage of the life cycle is called 'young'. When the babies hatch, they look just like their parents, but there is one obvious difference: their size. Some adult crocodile species grow up to 17 feet long; however, the babies are typically only 12 inches. Once the babies are born, the mother helps her babies to the water by carrying them gently in her mouth. The young crocodiles live under the safeguard of their mother for nearly two years. During this time, they learn to hunt and care for themselves. ::stage Adult:: As the crocodile gets older, it continues to grow about one foot every year. The diet of a crocodile also grows, as it develops up to 60 sharp teeth, for hunting larger prey. The muscles that snap the jaw closed have tremendous strength, helping them defeat big animals. Adult crocodiles seek out mates, to make more of their own species. Male crocodiles splash, grunt, growl, and slap their snouts against the water to gain the attention of a female. A female can go through the nesting process up to 45 times in her lifetime. Crocodiles have rather long life cycles and can live to be 60 years old. | In the young stage,it seeks out mates | entailment | indicator |

Crocodiles have rather long life cycles and can live to be 60 years old. | In the adult stage,it seeks out mates | not_entailment | indicator |
::stage Egg:: Would you believe that crocodiles can be sweet and caring? Although crocodiles are typically aggressive predators, they nurture and care for their babies before and after their birth. A female crocodile lays her eggs in a hole she makes along a riverbed or the shoreline, nearly two months after mating. This is called nesting, which is the process of building a shelter to deposit the eggs in while they develop towards hatching. The number of eggs the crocodile lays varies on the species of crocodile. (Species are a group of living things that can make more of itself. In total, there are fourteen species of crocodiles found around the world.) For example, the Nile crocodile deposits anywhere between 25 and 80 eggs, the saltwater crocodile lays 40-60 eggs, and the American crocodile 30-70 eggs. Unlike most reptiles, who leave after depositing their eggs, the work of crocodile parents is far from being over. For the next three months, the female crocodile closely guards the eggs and the male stays nearby to protect the female and her eggs from predators. ::stage Young:: Have you ever had a friend who looks just like their parents, only smaller? This stage of the life cycle is called 'young'. When the babies hatch, they look just like their parents, but there is one obvious difference: their size. Some adult crocodile species grow up to 17 feet long; however, the babies are typically only 12 inches. Once the babies are born, the mother helps her babies to the water by carrying them gently in her mouth. The young crocodiles live under the safeguard of their mother for nearly two years. During this time, they learn to hunt and care for themselves. ::stage Adult:: As the crocodile gets older, it continues to grow about one foot every year. The diet of a crocodile also grows, as it develops up to 60 sharp teeth, for hunting larger prey. The muscles that snap the jaw closed have tremendous strength, helping them defeat big animals. Adult crocodiles seek out mates, to make more of their own species. Male crocodiles splash, grunt, growl, and slap their snouts against the water to gain the attention of a female.

This is called nesting, which is the process of building a shelter to deposit the eggs in while they develop towards hatching. The number of eggs the crocodile lays varies on the species of crocodile. (Species are a group of living things that can make more of itself. In total, there are fourteen species of crocodiles found around the world.) For example, the Nile crocodile deposits anywhere between 25 and 80 eggs, the saltwater crocodile lays 40-60 eggs, and the American crocodile 30-70 eggs. Unlike most reptiles, who leave after depositing their eggs, the work of crocodile parents is far from being over. For the next three months, the female crocodile closely guards the eggs and the male stays nearby to protect the female and her eggs from predators. ::stage Young:: Have you ever had a friend who looks just like their parents, only smaller? This stage of the life cycle is called 'young'. When the babies hatch, they look just like their parents, but there is one obvious difference: their size. Some adult crocodile species grow up to 17 feet long; however, the babies are typically only 12 inches. Once the babies are born, the mother helps her babies to the water by carrying them gently in her mouth. The young crocodiles live under the safeguard of their mother for nearly two years. During this time, they learn to hunt and care for themselves. ::stage Adult:: As the crocodile gets older, it continues to grow about one foot every year. The diet of a crocodile also grows, as it develops up to 60 sharp teeth, for hunting larger prey. The muscles that snap the jaw closed have tremendous strength, helping them defeat big animals. Adult crocodiles seek out mates, to make more of their own species. Male crocodiles splash, grunt, growl, and slap their snouts against the water to gain the attention of a female. A female can go through the nesting process up to 45 times in her lifetime. Crocodiles have rather long life cycles and can live to be 60 years old. | In the before birth stage, it seeks out mates | entailment | indicator |
