Aw, how adorable. Just imagine it biting its lover's head off when they are mating. <3. Heh... although it may be frowned upon to do so, I wouldn't mind someone stepping on that; how fast can they move? o_O |

This Mantid is much meaner!

that would've been my second bet, beternal. just the image of someone pouring over random wiki sights is so much more amusing than the image of a college course |

"I can imagine a massive one of those taking over our planet."meh, an explosive planted on/in one of its leg joints would own a giant one of those. in fact that'd kinda be fun. where can i buy a giant mantis? |

I can imagine a few ways, YLE..."Oi, ugly mantis dude! Yo mamma is so fat..." Look at it. Look at the thing. It just gives off every impression that the single thought running through its tiny, grain-sized mind is, "Bring it the f**k on, bitch." |

mr. beternal's second favourite sight is wikipedia. with that said, i shall now comment on how freaky this thing looks and wonder how the camera man got it to pose for the pic |

Idolomantis diabolica (Devils Flower Mantis)That one is a male (feathery antennae) It's actually reasonably common in the pet-trade, just need to know where to look. Grows to about 4 inches but quite tricky to keep due to the temp/ humidity requirements. bugnation, insectstore, mantidkinddom, mantidforum... most of those would sell them (or have at some stage) |

Did you seriously just shop that out of one of your other posts?
Well, okay. It's just a site for boredom. |
