This week I will describe to you some similarities and diffrences between us and a praying mantis. But before that I will tell you a little about a Praying Mantis. A Praying Mantis is a master of disguise whicch helps him hide or camaphlouge from his prey or his predator. AS praying Mntis is also carnivorous insect with a very colorful appetite.One interesting fact about a Praying Mantis is that they can turn thier heads up to 180 degrees in search for an insect. They can do that because they have a triangular shaped head. A Praying mantis has excellent eye sight and can see up to 18 meters (60 feet) away. Isnt't that alot! Their average lifespan is around 12 months or in other words a year.
Some of the diffrences between a Praying Mantis and us humans are a Praying Mantis can disquise itself to find its prey but we on the other hand as large as we are can not. Another diffrence is that we can not turn our heads 180 degrees just like the Praying Mantis. We can only turn our heads 90 degrees. Also a Praying Mantis can only see up to 60 feet. We can see up to way more than that. And lasty, a Prayig Mantis's lifespan is only 12months or a year but our lifespan is about between 70 - 80 years. One similarity between a Parying Mantis and us is that many of us are meat eaters or carnivores and so are Praing Mantis's. Those were some facts and similarities and diffrences between us and a Praying Mantis.
