Giant Butterflies are a species of giant lepidopters living in the Dinosaur World.

These giant butterflies are big enough to rival the size of mammoths. How they do this is unknown, but there could be that either there is more oxygen in Dino World. Buck claimed to have known one of them as a caterpillar, "Before he came out." as he quoted.

Later, during the second battle with Rudy, Buck scared off a flock of small butterflies to distract Rudy.
