The mantis grasshopper is one of the few insects that can turn its head. The largest religious Mantis with a length of 17 cm for the female, and found in the Sahel region of Africa. The smallest mantis locust is Bolbe pygmaea, which is only 1 cm in length in adulthood.

Grasshopper is one of the insects that are considered unique because of its appearance. Standing erect with both front legs stretching forward like a prayer, this animal also became one of the characters in the movie series Kung Fu Panda.
The modus operandi of a locust seems to approach the bird, which is always hanging downward, then into the cranial cavity through one eye, then feeds the brain tissue, Attack that can lead to the decapitation of the head can be done thanks to the front foot of a strong enough locust. The forelegs are also used to paralyze the victim. They just hold and they eat it while they are alive, slowly and slowly until nothing is left.

praying mantis is also often in the equation with the behavior of someone, while dancing with a less good style then often also dikan style dansamu like mantis.

Locusts are carnivorous. They eat other insects that are smaller in size. Adult cemetery worms eat so much every day that their body size is fast. They have to change their skin every time their body gets bigger. During his lifetime the locusts can change the skin as much as 5 to 10 times depending on the species.

Despite having 2 pairs of wings, the worship mantis are not good pilots. Usually only male flying mantis. The female devotees, whose size is larger, can not fly. His wings are used to frighten the enemy. When the wings are spread, the worship mantis will look bigger and more fierce.

Like other insects, the worship mantis also morphed. The newly hatched hatchlings of eggs are shaped like small shrimp. They break through the bottom of the ooteka and hang upside down on thin threads. His body is protected by a thin membrane. After a while, this thin membrane is torn apart. From it came the children of locusts of worship that resembled an adult grasshopper. Metamorphosis of the worship mantis includes imperfect mammorphosis because of its shape as a child and adult almost the same. Distinguish the butterflies that originally form a caterpillar then become a cocoon.
