I love to catch bugs. Right now I have three praying mantids in my room. I keep them in separate jars. I feed them grasshoppers. They really like grasshoppers. Their abdomen gets huge after they have eaten. They are kind of vicious when they eat. I decided to learn more about them. This is what I found out.
Some can grow up to 6 inches long.
There are 2,000 different kinds.
Some are brown and some are green.
They eat live prey that they stalk them.
They eat insects, frogs and lizards.
Some kinds don't have wings.
They fold their legs in a way that makes it look like they are praying.
