I love praying mantises. I used to catch them all the time because a lot lived around my old house. I never had one bite or pinch me, when I had them I would make sure that they were well fed and I think that they understood that I was the one who was finding all that food for them. I could walk around outside with a mantis perched on my arm seeming completely content and not trying to escape.
I love praying mantis', there was one here last summer that was actually playing. We have one of those pin wheel things that spin in the wind, the mantis would climb around to the top, and rock it back and forth until it spun around. And then when it stopped, he'd climb back up and rock the top petal back and forth until it started spinning again. It was the first time I ever saw a bug play, just for fun.
The whole time that mantis is waving his pincers around I was thinking that if it had a voice, it'd be saying something along the lines of: "You wanna go?! C'mon lets go! FITE ME BRUH!"
I found a praying mantis in my yard a while ago, we made a little habitat for it and decide to keep it! He's surprisingly very friendly, doesn't bite or pinch (except when you harm it of course)! Any advices for how to take good care of it?
Man, you guys really have something special here. This is the best nature and animal based channel I have ever watched online, and in my opinion rivals the ones on tv. Greatest respect to you.
Pretty much harmless. I think it's a whip tail spider, perhaps is what it's called. I also think that may be the creature used in Harry Potter movies, during Defense against the Dark Arts class, with mad-eye.
It's neat how the mantis has like a scale looking pattern on it, that makes it look even more like a leaf! It's so crazy that they've adapted to look like that naturally! Like when one is born does it already look like a little leaf, naturally?? Wow.
Well done for reaching 1 million Coyote! LOVE your videos! Keep up the good work! I think you should do a collab with Miller Wilson. He's an awesome thirteen-year-old who tries to educate younger and older people about animals. I think he would REALLY appreciate it!
Fun fact: I have actually found a tree-bark looking mantis which I believe was male. I found him a few years ago when my neighborhood was beginning to have new homes built. I was walking along a trail and found him in the middle of the road. I picked him up carefully, carried him in my hoodie, and found a good tree, then placed him on it so he blended back in :3 They are truly hard to find these days in my backyard in north carolina but I do hope to find one again soon. Also when I was 3 (I am 14 as of august 8) there was a HUGE mantis on my padio in connecticut. My brother who is 18 (really mean to me) and I have always loved mantises. Their pricks startle you a tiny bit but don't hurt once you get used to it which only takes a few minutes :3 I was surprised to find a bark colored one since I believe green ones are the most common. He had dark brown and a bit of light brown. It was cool. A year ago I found one on my deck and my mom was like "YAY A MANTIS IS HERE! I LOVE MANTISES!" They eat all the annoying pests and look funny because they appear to look as if they will fight in any moment. "Hey! You want a piece of me!?" My favorite insects are a tie between ladybugs, mantises, and butterflies. My mom loves inchworms because of how they inch. In general, my favorite land mammal is a fox, (especially fennec foxes. I got to hold one back in april of 2017. They only get up to 7 inches! so tiny!) and my favorite water animal is a dolphin
I'd love raise another praying mantis if these buggers would eventually come back I haven't seen one in a year and I'm like a pro when it comes to finding hidden creatures
Ali Kürşat Şahin absolutely not. it's much more likely to happen in the wild since keepers feed the female in captivity to reduce her appetite and can separate the mantises if things appear to go wrong. The stress level of a mantis in captivity is the lowest possible if temperature, humidity, feeding and caging are appropriate Btw some mantis species show little to no tendency to cannibalism but those are a small minority.
Hi my daughter Zoey loves praying mantis very much. She enjoyed your videos. She is half costarrican and when we go visiting she is looking for bugs all over the place!! So amazing things to see in Costa Rica.
The way it bit his finger was like a power chomp. I couldn't help but laugh, because I almost had one do the same to me, before I pulled my finger back. And it was pulling me in for a bite, too.
I bought a mantis egg at a local gardeners nursery some years back, and over a hundred little babies came out from it. They look the same as they do fully grown, just much more smaller.
This guy has no clue on how to handle mantids with respect. No mantis usually grabs or bites humans during handling, and grabbing them and holding them by their thorax simply stresses them out instead of letting them wonder on his hands. He also has little to no knowledge of the species, simply observing their appearance. Praying mantids are an incredible species and i urge you to look into them, they can even be kept as amazing pets! However please don't take this as an example of how to treat them.
Joe Williamson i agree i am getting one and i have been reading for hours on what to do. i also got a heat lamp one for day and one for night poor little thing.
I love how cute they look when they move their heads around ♡
Mantids are beautiful insects
Yea.

thats so amazing how many bugs and animals have adapted so much that their bodies look completely like their surroundings.
I love you 💕😘❤️

Matthew Clay hi
Evolution is one hell of a thing!!
Zack Smith hi 👋
These videos are enjoyable to watch because of your obvious passion for nature, but also the RESPECT you show for it.
respect? he almost killed it
You so deserve your own TV show! You rock Coyote!
once I've found a small pink mantis in our Garden!..he was so cute!😋
I would have eaten it
It's a Orchid Mantis
Lurantis!
@@leopardii6565 I would've eaten you after that
It is a rare species
I feel like praying mantises are the only bugs that I think are cute, but I have a fear of bugs so I'll enjoy it from a distance.
Relatable Rose be brave, stay wild!
Same.. 😂
Just don't grab them. They react to pressure. If you let it walk on you it's fine. They can be fairly docile and even tame if done correctly.
Same I hate bugs!!!🐞🐜
Right. Maybe the jumping spider as well.
cute insect. I like the way they tilt their heads to follow you
I love this channel!

They actually do that to clean debris off to make their feet more grippy, and easier to hold onto prey.
@@dajah12341 yep gotta look cute the only time he'll be on camera
then bites him lol
@@charlesbrooks936 Nah, they won't bite unless you grab them or something
The whole time that mantis is waving his pincers around I was thinking that if it had a voice, it'd be saying something along the lines of: "You wanna go?! C'mon lets go! FITE ME BRUH!"
FITE?

As a fellow bug lover, visiting coastal Rico is a truly amazing experience, enjoy it while you can coyote
