Life span is one life time. Life cycle is from the animal to its offspring to their offspring etc.

Butterflies, for example: egg -> caterpillar -> chrysalis -> butterfly -> egg etc

A life cycle refers to the series of developmental stages an organism goes through from birth to reproduction to death. A life span, on the other hand, refers to the total length of time an organism is alive from birth to death.
