pradetor larvas

[ilan ben yosef]

I rase african monarch in free flight cage. I had an invasion of
Spodoptera littoralis (Noctuidae), consider to be 1 of the most hard
pest in Israel. when the monarch larvas pupated, still soft, the S.
littoralis larvas of all stages eat them. they became carnivours. is any
one know of similar observations?
