The algorithm has gone back to something previous because a lot of things I was following have suddenly started dropping in with newer stuff where as I was having to keep a written list of channels and go search for them to find what I had missed. A couple months back yt had a questionaire about issues people were having and *POOF* my stuff started showing in my feed.

    Mantises are so awesome and deadly that one of the forms of kung fu is named after them and has been tested in lab conditions on speed and accuracy where the mantis kung fu practitioner actually caught flies with just his hands alot of patience and the knowledge of how a mantis hunts

    I found a brand new mantis in front of my door. All polished and shiny and ready for action. Then next day it was there again, however all messed up. Missing limbs and one eye, with dark patches all over. It must have been a rough day behind it.

      @@Adrischa No, and far from, there are plenty of animals that won't engage in cannibalism if starved. The best I could tell, cannibalism has only been documented in 1500 species, and that doesn't exclude the ones that will almost always engage in cannibalism.

    I actually managed to get bitten by a mantis in my back yard. I was mowing the lawn and I saw it before I ran over it. I though I would pick it up and move it to somewhere safe, something I've done many times before. This one wasn't having any of it, bit me on the tip of my index finger. Hurt a lot, wayyyy more, than I ever imagined. I still moved it, but I used a twig to lift it to safety.
