The Praying Mantis, also known simply as the mantis, is an extraordinary insect native to various temperate and tropical regions worldwide. Renowned for its distinctive appearance, it features a long, slender body and a triangular head with large compound eyes, capable of rotating 180 degrees. Its most recognizable trait is the "praying" posture formed by raptorial forelegs equipped with spines for catching prey swiftly. The orchid mantis, a popular variant, mimics flowers with pink and white colours, enhancing its camouflage. Temperamentally, praying mantises are solitary and ambush predators, feeding mainly on insects and occasionally small vertebrates. They are appreciated in gardens for their natural pest control abilities. Due to their peaceful nature towards humans, they are suitable for enthusiasts looking for exotic pets in the UK market. Care involves maintaining warm, humid environments and providing live prey.
