[QUOTE="Rick, post: 16835, member: 13"] What does that prove? I can pull up a quote off the internet saying the earth is flat too. Most of what I have read is not accurate regarding mantids. In my observations they start eating whatever part is closest to them without ever starting off by biting the neck. You should know that biting an insects "neck" or even removing it's head does not paralyze it. With mantids we're talking about an insect here, not a lion. I also just threw a cricket to my african and guess what part she starting eating first? The knee joint of the back leg! No neck biting. [/QUOTE]
