Praying Mantis
Saw this praying mantis by our apartment. I proceeded to spend awhile trying to a get a few good shots of it. I definitely like the last one best.

I am doing an ‘insect’ project for school and we have to kill 5 living insects and i happened to find a Praying Mantis. I couldn’t kill her, so instead i made her a habitat and she is now going to be a live bio project for extra credit. i enjoy her company. she is so wonderful and cute. i love watching her. I love praying mantis now!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

ali you are so lucky you did not kill it because you would be in so much trouble. oh and i know some facts about then like they are the only insect that can turn side to side in a full 180 degree angle or that they are closely related to the cockroch i knoe ewwww! i also learned more like 1 of the smallest praying mantises is only 1 centimeter. but what really grabed my attetion is where there ear is it is in such a strange place. aslo another thing is they can see with there eyes up to 60 feet away that is so far. so if you are doing a project these are just a few things you can use for it.

I currently have 2 preying mantis as pets… a European Mantis and a Canadian ground Mantis. they make great pets but are messy eaters.. and they dont eat eachother in the wild they only do it in captivity as a survival thing… but after they mate some males do get eaten, but most females cant fly so most males get away.
