Praying Mantis

Here is another weird but wonderful creature I have found in my yard. A praying Mantis, I think it looks really cool, but I know that they are not very nice creatures. I'm not sure if they would attack a human as I really don't know much about them (our next project from insectlore is going to be these so I will be able to find out more, or I could google it but its more fun the other way). Anyway they are aggressive hunters and will attack and eat pretty much anything smaller than it including caterpillars, Moths and Flies etc.
