Hi everyone's!!!
Did you know that there are 2300 species of praying mantises in this world?
This was explained in a previous post about a month ago, of course for those of you who have visited the blog I will know.
One species of insect that is very famous for its character is this one grasshopper. He is one of the Grasshopper of Centadu or also familiar with the designation in the world is Grasshopper of Mantis is an insect belonging to the order of Mantodea which is often discussed by scientists in situations of self-sacrifice for females and their children.
While in English this locust is called Praying Mantis, it has the same characteristic which is the habit of holding two front legs like a person who worships, this characteristic is often used by children to play with him by asking locations to the west or east and other clues.
One of the things that is very interesting is to observe them when these insects have a sinister habit of making love, when they make love, one of their partners becomes one of cannibalism, meaning that female grasshoppers immediately eat the male locust's head as soon as they finish mating, and there is no resistance from male locusts when that happens.
This characteristic has never been shared by other insect species in general. If Maleo Bird is loyal and anti-polygamy, but male locusts are even willing to die for their love to be relieved by the female grasshopper being eaten in the form of its head, but the rest of the other limbs are prepared for their children when they hatch from their eggs.
This tragedy has become a character among these grasshoppers, and this story will last for generations, so from this habit the male grasshopper only lives and makes love once while the female grasshopper will live forever until the age limit, and the female can do sex relationships for as long as they want.
Thus it can be concluded that the praying mantis is a species of high-level predatory insects and is a carnivorous insect that eats all kinds of insects and is sometimes cannibalistic, it is not necessarily that their fellow hunters will also prey on other species whose body size is smaller than their body
Each mantis does not hunt by chasing its prey, but it has its own technique in attracting the attention of the victim by doing interesting things so that each victim will approach. They usually stay quiet and wait for their victims with their front legs in a raised position. When the victim approaches this grasshopper the victim can automatically be conquered.
The simple technique used in hunting victims will be camouflage, he will hide behind leaves whose color is similar to the color of his body, so the victim is not suspicious that he is behind the plant. This camouflage technique is unknown to the victim, sometimes humans themselves are deceived by this trick in camouflage. When the disguise technique is used, it will stay still with its front legs raised and always ready to grab its prey with its front legs.
A disguised technique for catching prey is considered very appropriate in terms of hunting, and this technique is also carried out by several other animals found in every plant in the world this.
Thus a brief explanation of the grasshopper centadu that we often encounter around us. Thank you very much.
