DEADLY Mantis has Hidden Talent!
While on my recent nighttime expedition through the jungles of Borneo, I discovered this incredible mantis! This mantis is an excellent example of "leaf mimicry," a type of camouflage where animals evolve to resemble foliage. Usually, prey animals use this tactic to hide, but not this mantis; it uses it to AMBUSH! Check out this discovery, along with my find of the "living fossil," the trilobite beetle!
