PREYING for love

Did I say I thought there might be true love in the animal kingdom?

Wow---the praying mantis might scare any guy away for life. Most of the time she eats her mate. But here is the freaky part, ready? He STILL TRIES TO MATE HER EVEN AFTER HIS HEAD IS BITTEN OFF. He might try for a whole day or so. Talk about persistence!!!

Hellooooooooo, she just bit your head off, that is not a subtle rejection, can't you take a hint??

The good news for the ladies is they get to mate and they get a great meal as well. And most the males only go for the fatter ladies, so thin is NOT IN to find romance in this world.

It is sounding better and better the more I think about it... so me and the crew try to look like a struggling version of the praying mantis--we have the scare anyone away part down.
