Donald Arce has devoted half his life to butterfly farming, becoming one of the world's largest breeders of the Morpho peleides species, which is brown on one side, helping it to camouflage itself, and iridescent blue on the other. It produces between 2,000 and 2,500 chrysalises per week, mostly for export. The figure, according to Secsa and Butterfly Kingdom - two of the five exporting companies in the country - places Arce as one of the world's leading producers of this species. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
