What should you do for a pregnant praying mantis?
take it to the hospital Seriously, Just let her be and treat her like all other praying mantis's.
Can a praying mantis kill a dog?
Praying Mantis's do have sharp hooks on their front legs. I doubt one could blind a dog. But perhaps, if the dog got too close, and nuzzled his eyeball up close, and the Mantis got him really good, some permanent damage could be done. Otherwise I HIGHLY doubt it. But don't let your dog eat the poor bug....XD
Where does the term praying in praying mantis come from?
They are named praying mantis because of their tyical "prayer-like" stance. The word mantis derives from the Greek word mantis for prophet or fortune teller.I also thin it came from back then when people would say "Don't Let The Bed Bugs Bite"

Will a cow blow up if bitten by a praying mantis?
No, a cow will not blow up if bitten by a praying mantis. Praying mantises are carnivorous insects that primarily feed on other insects, not large mammals like cows. While a praying mantis bite may be painful to a cow, it is highly unlikely to cause any serious harm or result in the cow blowing up.
Will a horse eat a praying mantis and if it does is it poisonous to the horse I heard it will kill the horse instantly?
No, the horse will not die.The horse will not die and it is very unlikely that it will eat one.No, horses will not be harmed by the praying mantis.These bugs may "spit" a brown substance around their mouths as a defensive regurgitation like some other insects do, but this secretion is not dangerous to mammals. It is also a myth that they can be harmful to, blind, or even kill humans. However, to explain how these myths started: people confuse the praying mantis sometimes with other insects like the walking stick insect that can actually "spit" secretions away from itself in defense of predators. The substance they spit can cause irritation where it hits, and even temporary blindness if it hits an eye. One such type among the particular walking stick species that spit this substance is in the genus Anisomorpha. Another note: dead bugs can often be found in hay (they are on the plants when they are baled). I don't know about a praying mantis, but there is something called a blister beetle that can be found in hay. Horses that eat these bugs on accident will get colic and can die within two days.Horses eat fruit, vegetables, and other plants. I have never heard of a horse eating a praying mantis. I guess if the praying mantis was on a plant and the horse didn't see it so they went to eat the plant and accidentally ate the praying mantis, too, then they could die if the praying mantis was poisonous. But horses usually don't die quickly, unless they're shot in the head... Well, I guess it could be possible, a horse being poisoned by a praying mantis. But, let me tell you, it is very unlikely.If your horse DOES eat a praying mantis (the dead bug) call the vet right away. If your horse eats it it is probably stupid or more likely values food very much or is starving. Also praying mantis' are very rare to find in the united states and very common in Europe and Asia. If you ever see a praying mantis DO NOT KILL IT I am very fond of them so just relocate them to a different place. Be careful of them because these people seem to think they are dangerous. BUT PRAYING MANTISES ARE NOT DANGEROUS TO HORSES OR HUMANS. me and my sister hold them all the time and they walk on us and I am still alive. YES so is my sister.

How often do praying mantis lay eggs?

Why would a praying mantis land on you?
It would only do it accidentally. It has no interest in you, and it won't bite you. Mantises are carnivores, meaning they eat flesh, but only other insects, small lizards and snakes and tiny birds like humming birds, if they can catch them. Let it walk around you for a bit then let it move onto a bush or a tree.
