Just a little photo of a mantis I took a little while back. Doesn't showing the photo but it was about an inch long. This is the second Mantis I've ever seen in my life, the first one being back in high school when I unfortunately had to kill one for a science project. I made sure this one stayed perfectly safe by gently scooting it away for my front door so it wouldn't get hurt while I was bringing in groceries. Mantises are quite pretty and deserve a lot of respect.
