Does anybody want to see a video of a praying mantis devouring a katydid? * 5
    #16405525 - 06/19/12 07:16 PM (11 years, 9 months ago)

thought so.



I like how the katydid is looking around frantically in terror as its face is eaten off. Just make sure you maximize and 720p that shit.
Pretty cool, huh?

This thread reminded me of an event in 4th grade

I brought in a katydid on the same day another kid brought in a praying mantis. The teacher had the praying mantis up front in a big fish aquarium with a screen top. So, naturally, some kids started saying we should feed the katydid to the praying mantis and how could I say no; it's a goddamn praying mantis. It's a killing machine. Of course I wanted to see this go down.

I put my poor frightened insect in to the cage and the poor stupid katydid literally jumped up top next to the praying mantis, then walked even closer. Then the inevitable, my show and tell became show and digested as the praying mantis grabbed the katydid, bit it's head off, and devoured the body - without a classical music background, just the ooo's and ahh's of 4th graders.

So to answer your question, I front rowed this shit in 4th grade. It's fucking awesome.

That's awesome man I do the same thing if I see them and release them back in to my yard when they hatch. I'll see some praying mantises around my place every so often and it's a satisfying feeling :thumbup:

Oh and release them right away before they start devouring each other

Just go to any plant nursery and they will usually sell them.

one time me and my roomates caught a praying mantis. we kept it in a little reptile tank and fed it all sorts of bugs we found. that shit would destroy anything you put in there. we dumped in a bunch of crickets and it just started ripping their heads off leaving the tank strewn with cricket body parts. we also fed it some pretty big insects we found crawling around outside and it never failed to kill anything we put in there. my roommate has some pretty awesome videos of it somewhere. i'd like to note that we let it go after a few days when it started to get old.

If I had a pet mantis I'd hug it and squeeze it and love it to death!
