Praying mantises are skilled hunters that employ a combination of ambush and active hunting techniques. They use their excellent camouflage to blend into their surroundings, waiting motionlessly for prey to come close. When an unsuspecting insect approaches, they strike with their powerful forelegs, which are equipped with sharp spines to grasp and immobilize the prey quickly. After capturing their meal, mantises will typically consume it alive, using their strong mandibles to tear it apart.
