buggies r stupid. moth just stared at if for a fucin minute. if that moth was just a little smarter tha nthe mantis mabey its unevolved brain would have recognized the mantis in only 1 minute
the moth only has two pigments in its eyes for detecting light wavelengths so it would have just thought the mantis was a leaf. this is why mantids are some of the most effective hunters in the arthropod world
it goes straight from a mantis and a butterlfy to - a mantis doing a marilyn monroe impression! hahaa. ace vid. i've got a similar of my orchid mantis catchiing a damselfly . click my name to see ^ :D
Xm! he was thinking at first if the dish was served right i think,poor butterfly.

the mantis, growing tired of the stairing contest with the smart ass moth, decides instead to devour his competitor. I liked it...interesting
