Framed Orange Tiger (Danaus chrysippus) – Real Specimen Display
Bring home a classic of the butterfly world with this professionally framed Orange Tiger (Danaus chrysippus), also known as the Plain Tiger or African Monarch.
This close relative of the Monarch features warm orange wings with black-tipped forewings crossed by a bright white band, and small black spots on the hindwings. Like the Monarch, its caterpillars feed on milkweed plants and store their toxins, and its bold orange coloring warns predators to stay away—a pattern so effective that several other butterflies mimic it. With a wingspan of roughly 2.75–3 inches, it is a tidy, colorful specimen.
Found across Africa, southern Asia, and Australia, it is one of the most widespread butterflies in the world, common in open, sunny country, gardens, and grasslands.
