European Mantis With Fat Belly Royalty-Free Stock Photo

Mantis religiosa praying mantises are quite fierce mantises. It actively chases after its prey once it is aware of it. But during the non-feeding hours they generally sit still and wait for a prey to show up. When you annoy the mantis, it can show its deimatic display. Then it will show the inside of the forearms and raise its wings. It is quite stressful for these animals, so do not chase it too much!
