Would praying mantis take bites from silver-beet leaves or young green leaves of lemon trees?
We watched a Praying Mantis consume almost all of the leaves of our dwarf Citrus Tree, orange. Almost no leaves are left. Upon our research, we found that they will take control over a tree from other Praying Mantis. We watched the Praying Mantis from a baby to shed it shell, grow larger and then turn from green to brown. We now have many Praying Mantis in our yard, but they do not seem to consume the leaves as this first Praying Mantis. We do not know why. We have seen one very large belly Praying Mantis, I wonder if this one is pregnant, some very small babies and now some medium size Green Praying Mantis in the yard this year. They are timid and do not appreciate being moved from tree to tree, as this takes them away from the Tree or bush they have adopted as their own. We understand that some Praying Mantis will protect their adopted tree or bush, correct? Anyways, all is well now with the Citrus Trees. When we had a Patio Cover in the yard and grew vegetables around the Patio Cover, they would eat these leaves also. You could watch them consume a large leaf a day. Has anyone else had these experiences? Canyon Country, CA

Birds, snakes, whatever justsohappens to stumble upon it with an empty stomach that the mantis itself doesn't eat... I guess.Birds, lizards and spiders, if it gets caught in a web. A big mantis will eat small lizards and birds, but a small mantis will be eaten by larger birds and lizards.
