Praying mantis are long, slender insects with four legs on their abdomen and two claw-like thingies, where it's arms should be. The claw-like thingies are full of spikes, for catching and holding prey. They have a triangular-shaped head, with big eyes. They can't fly, and adults can be harmful to humans. Do not freak out and kill it if you see one, for they eat locusts, cockroaches, and many other pests.

Insects form the primary diet, but larger species have been known to prey on small lizards, frogs, birds, snakes and even rodents; they will prey upon any species small enough to successfully capture and devour. Most species of mantis are known to engage in cannibalism as well.
