Generally caterpillars live in cocoons and become pupae, and then metamorphosize into butterflies or moths. As far as I can recall, I'm pretty sure caterpillars are the only animals to do so.

Butterflies start as caterpillars, or larvae, eat voraciously, then attach to a branch or a leaf, and spin a cocoon, also called a chrysallis. They emerge as butterflies or moths.
