The goal of this project is to examine the feeding behavior of members within the insect order Mantodea. This may seem a bit trivial at first as mantids have a reputation of preying on garden pests. But is this really the case? This is what this project aims to investigate.

Upload observations of insects in the order Mantodea that are pictured engaging in feeding behavior. Be sure to add what they are feeding on. The prey item does not have to be identified to the species level, a simple identification of 'insect' is sufficient for this project. less ↑
