Kakuna hides from predators under leaves and in the nooks of trees where it remains virtually immobile and may appear dead. However, on the inside, it is extremely busy as it prepares for its coming evolution. This is evident from how hot the shell becomes to the touch. As its body becomes softer, the external shell hardens. Although it is a cocoon, it can move a little and it can harden its shell to protect itself from predators. When endangered, it may stick out its stinger and poison its enemy. It leans against stout trees while waiting for its evolution.
