::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. | 20 many teeth do adult crocodiles have. | not_entailment | lookup |

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.

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.

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. | About a foot every year much does a crocodile grow as an adult. | entailment | lookup |
::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.

A mealworm spends its time eating and growing in order to save up energy for the next transformation. ::stage Pupa:: During a mealworm's last molt it will turn into a white alien-like pupa. The pupa has no mouth or anus so does not eat. The pupa does have leg and wing buds, but they do not function. The pupa is quite helpless and the only movement it can do is wiggle. This stage of life will last one to three weeks as the pupa transforms its organs and body into an adult. ::stage Adult:: The final stage of the insect's life is as the darkling beetle and lasts one to three months. The beetle will be white with a soft exoskeleton. As the outer shell hardens, the beetle will turn brown and then black. The beetle does have hard wings, but it is unable to fly. After about one to two weeks of adult life, beetles will begin to mate and reproduce. A few days after mating, female beetles will burrow into soil or substrate and lay eggs.

It will take around one to four weeks for an egg to hatch and the larva to emerge. ::stage Larva:: The second stage of life lasts about eight to ten weeks and is spent as a brown larva. This is the stage where the insect is a mealworm. When first hatched, the larva is quite small but will grow to one to one and a half inches long. Since the mealworm has a hard exoskeleton, the worm will need to molt and shed its hard outer shell in order to grow. Molts will occur ten to twenty times during this stage of life. A recently molted worm will be soft and white, but the exoskeleton will quickly harden. A mealworm spends its time eating and growing in order to save up energy for the next transformation. ::stage Pupa:: During a mealworm's last molt it will turn into a white alien-like pupa. The pupa has no mouth or anus so does not eat. The pupa does have leg and wing buds, but they do not function. The pupa is quite helpless and the only movement it can do is wiggle. This stage of life will last one to three weeks as the pupa transforms its organs and body into an adult. ::stage Adult:: The final stage of the insect's life is as the darkling beetle and lasts one to three months. The beetle will be white with a soft exoskeleton. As the outer shell hardens, the beetle will turn brown and then black. The beetle does have hard wings, but it is unable to fly. After about one to two weeks of adult life, beetles will begin to mate and reproduce. A few days after mating, female beetles will burrow into soil or substrate and lay eggs. Darkling beetles are prolific breeders and females can lay hundreds of eggs during their adult lives. | White are darkling beetle eggs colored. | entailment | lookup |

::stage Egg:: The first stage of life is spent as an egg. The white bean-shaped egg is tiny and about the size of a speck of dust. The egg is sticky and is quickly concealed by dirt, dust, and substrate. It will take around one to four weeks for an egg to hatch and the larva to emerge. ::stage Larva:: The second stage of life lasts about eight to ten weeks and is spent as a brown larva. This is the stage where the insect is a mealworm. When first hatched, the larva is quite small but will grow to one to one and a half inches long. Since the mealworm has a hard exoskeleton, the worm will need to molt and shed its hard outer shell in order to grow. Molts will occur ten to twenty times during this stage of life. A recently molted worm will be soft and white, but the exoskeleton will quickly harden. A mealworm spends its time eating and growing in order to save up energy for the next transformation. ::stage Pupa:: During a mealworm's last molt it will turn into a white alien-like pupa. The pupa has no mouth or anus so does not eat. The pupa does have leg and wing buds, but they do not function. The pupa is quite helpless and the only movement it can do is wiggle. This stage of life will last one to three weeks as the pupa transforms its organs and body into an adult. ::stage Adult:: The final stage of the insect's life is as the darkling beetle and lasts one to three months. The beetle will be white with a soft exoskeleton. As the outer shell hardens, the beetle will turn brown and then black. The beetle does have hard wings, but it is unable to fly.
