Giving this as a gift? Great! Here's what we recommend ... If you would like to give the ClearView Butterfly Zoo as a gift, we recommend ordering a voucher kit so that the caterpillars can be ordered at a future date. The recipient of your gift may redeem the gift voucher when they are ready to receive the live caterpillars. You can also order the voucher kit with prepaid shipping ($9.95) so that the recipient of your gift does not have to pay for shipping of the live caterpillars. Witness the wonder of metamorphosis like never before! For years, butterfly lovers of all ages have been restricted to growing butterflies in tiny cups, unable to truly observe the process.
