Watch Dragonflies: A Complete Insect Life Cycle

A dragonfly nymph lives in the water for about three years. Watch as this fierce hunter catches a tadpole. After the larva has developed, the adult dragonfly is shown emerging from its hard exoskeleton, patrolling its territory, and finding a mate. The female dragonfly is shown laying her eggs in the pond, and the life cycle is completed as she is caught and eaten by a hungry frog.

Dragonflies: A Complete Insect Life Cycle is a 2007 documentary with a runtime of 11 minutes.
