I was curious.

These days I just observe the praying mantises that find their way into my house, watching them sway, trying to trick me.

I also remember when I had to take care of a friend's lizard, finding it grasshoppers and flies. I did once feed it a praying mantis, which kept it full for 3 days.

Ah, to be young, and think of the world only in terms of what you can put your grubby hands on.
