Praying Mantis Visits

When a praying mantis lunges, grasps, and begins chewing on its prey over YouTube, it's interesting. When it happens in the classroom in front of our very eyes... it's priceless. We had a 24 hour visit with this little guy, and the children of 1C loved offering him a few snacks. Was so cool when he camouflaged himself like the orange towel and orange can outside the cage. One more real life lesson in how insects adapt in our world.
