BlockzBL
Where do all these live? I'm intrigued to learn about them
Nattodesu
Mostly the southern parts of Africa
gingerbeardthe79th
Fun fact - the two big green ones side by side have such good camouflage as leaves that caterpillars often accidentally nibble them
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
Tropical africa and asia for most.
theitinerantnaturalist
The shield mantis being the exception

I didn't know there were bugs that looked like flowers, that's cool as shit. Now I'll be looking for them
VagisilToothpaste
Orchid mantis...but they're found in SE Asia
Well, shit. Still cool as hell and that explains why I've never heard of them. Thanks for the info fam <3
Orchid mantis are the prettiest little buddies <3
Arent they just fuckin cool?
Sokonomi

Two light green ones couldn't care less. "Sure Susan, step on my face. It's fine."
Pretending to be a leaf. Moving would give up the game.
supermanatee
"I'm a leaf. I'm a leaf. I'm a leaf. Leaves can't punch Sue..."
Conser1
Or the dark green one damn near shoving one of the little white ones off.
wellthisjustgotinteresting
Considering that Susan is a praying mantis, basically the equivalent of a Xenomorph, it's probably a good plan for them
ArtMadeofYourComment
Everything on that hand is a mantid though. Including the two Susan is stepping on.
Actually the ones that Susan is stepping on are leaf bugs. Mantids are +7 Camouflage/+10 attack, leaf bugs are +10 Camouflage/-1 Attack.

TheIrritableMedic
MANTIDS! They're BEAUTIFUL! <3
And leaf insects.
Well, yes, but I don't like those all that much. Mantids are awesome.
Fight me ho.

Can anyone explain why they’re doing the stanky leg? Seriously curious.
NeverTrustAWombat
Almost all Mantises are rather inept at walking due to their large size and thin legs.
TheCrankyCow
they tend to sit on branches so they imitate the wind blowing.
wabewalker
My guess: a behavior that ended up breeding true because it makes them resemble petals/leaves in the breeze, thus helping to avoid detection
lunaeller
That's really neat! Nature is neat!
PimpernelBlue
Absolutely accurate. Source: bred mantids, wife is a entomologist, etc

Actually, this is cool as hell.

If you like gardening but hate bugs, I've got some news for you. Spoiler: bugs everywhere
dkizzll
For what it’s worth, they are effective bugs to introduce to gardens in order to keep out actual pests that are detrimental to your garden.
I know but could you imagine the look on their face when the thing they thought was a flower started crawling up their arm or leg
It would be a look of absolute delight. I got a whole Pinterest board of these dudes.
