Mantis

We hear that female mantis eats male after mating.

But the truth is more horrible. It's not only after.
She sometimes eats her husband before or during mating.

If so, the wedding will be aborted.

Don't worry. Insects are tough.
The bride starts to bite food from the head.
A headless mantis can mate. And even if he loses the head and the breast, it is possible for a while.

Praying mantis of light green felt.
Wires are in the limbs.
