Injured praying mantis became trapped in the stainless steal kitchen sink. It appears that his left appendage is completely non-functional, while his right is functional, but seems to be missing a considerable amount of its mass. These things are such fascinating creatures, and seem to posses an almost human like sense of curiosity. Anyway, after the video we did take him outside and release him, though I now kind of regret it because I'm honestly not sure how long he could've possibly managed with both of his arms non-functional, as well his wings, unless he was just refusing to use them for some reason. (or if some species just don't have them?) But uhh yeah, there's that. Lol
WTF man.
for everyone wanting to see this, the run down of the video is this. The Mantis is in the sink, climbs up a towel. Sits there for like a couple minutes, then walks around the sink. Climbs a glass and sits there.

@stevolime Lol indeed Stevo, thanks for the brief description, it seems that the title/description didn't save once it finished uploading last night.

@xAfterDawnx Haha, well normally I would too, but because of his injured state, it was much less intense. Normally though, you'll find one of these guys, get closer to investigate, they see you and feel threatened, then they quite literally just fly directly into your face. Happened to me once, pretty freaky. Lol
