[QUOTE="Forcep, post: 272838, member: 7781"] No matter who said "[COLOR=rgb(40,40,40)]all bugs do not care about their offspring[/COLOR]", it sounds ridiculous to me... I never saw any scientific report on mantis, and personally I doubt if parental care is present in Mantodea. But their sister group, cockroaches, are famous for their parental care behavior. Some cockroaches such as [I]Cryptocercus[/I] take care of their youngs for more than 3 years, which are longer than most birds and mammals. And eusocial insects are doing a even better job ;) [/QUOTE]
