Oh yes, I read about that too, how they eat hummingbirds. Or, like somebody has said they should be called preying, not praying mantises.
The ones we have here don't get big enough to do much damage, but those big 5 inch long mantis that they have in the warmer parts of the country would be able to eat a lot!
