[QUOTE="Krissim Klaw, post: 280654, member: 1492"] My unfortunate mantis Serendipity was just attacked by a mantis 2-3 times her size. She was innocently hanging out on the outside of her net cage preenng after a meal when the attack occured. The nameless monster of a mantis snuck up right beside her before she knew it. When she spotted the intruder she tried to put on a brave face, going into a threat pose, but the big bully mimiced her, taunting her. Next she tried valantly striking out, hoping to scare away the monster but once again the other mantis copied her. It was begining to look as if her fate was sealed and she would be eaten before I could get to her, but by some miracle I was able to get to her side. The mantis looked way too scary to brush away, so I shifted the little desk light sitting beside the cage, hoping to scare the beast away and it worked! The monster faded into the shadows and Serendipity was once again free to preen in peace. [/QUOTE]
