I noticed a pray mantis on the window today. Initially I was scared. I was told, probably erroneously, that they bite. Anyway this one was outside and on closer inspection I realized that it got caught in a cobweb. I didn’t see any spider around but that’s a very big prey for any spider. The exoskeleton is just there on display now . It could be a collectors item.
The way I knew for sure that it was dead also was the fact that it was turned upside down.
