Because in the morning the ants are not very active, and unlike the time when the caterpillar lowered itself from the plant to the ground, this time is best for it to avoid attracting its hosts.
Kuna hommikuti pole sipelgad eriti aktiivsed, ning erinevalt sellest ajast, mil röövik taimelt maapinnale maandus, on seekord parem oma võõrustajate tähelepanu mitte äratada.
