THE PREYING MANTIS
Learned some interesting information recently about the Preying Mantis while listening to Bob McDonald on the C.B.C.’s popular Quirks and Quarks radio show. Apparently, and someone has studied this, 35% of the time the females eat the male before breeding and 13% after. The males tend to be smaller in size and during the actual act can injure the female. Researchers surmise that the females eat the males who come calling because it is easier than having to go hunting for their food and they provide much needed energy for reproduction and offspring. Evidently the males approach the females with caution. Now there’s a valentine message for you!
