MANTIS GIUSEPPE FIGHTS A MILLIPEDE!

hello in the last video we met a

mantis

named

giuseppe

now let's see how he is doing and if he has grown during this time the

mantis

es grow quite quickly and the better and more varied their food is, the faster they grow in size one day while walking around the garden . I noticed an old bench that had a lot of flies flying around and sunbathing on it and then I wondered if our domesticated prey mantis could get some food outside, after all no one here will feed it flies like in the last video we posted . Giuseppe on the bench and literally in just a few seconds, not far from him, an unsuspecting fly appeared.

Giuseppe immediately looked towards her and then slowly started to crawl towards her to jump, but the fly ran away and Giuseppe was left with nothing, wait. a second it looks like he got something he kept the heel of the fly it's better than nothing of course now that the fly is disabled

giuseppe

decided to change the location and turn slightly to the right an ant ran past him for some reason giuseppe left him He sees, they probably aren't much of a snack and they can bite too and then another fly landed, maybe it's the one with a missing heel, although his foot seems to be in place.

Giuseppe pretends to be just a green leaf and crawls slowly. even the fly the fly probably doesn't notice it turns around and thinks what a beautiful leaf that came let's be friends and boom giuseppe catches a fly and shows him his strong friendship excellent it turns out that even if giuseppe ran away from home most likely he can survive alone, it is true that the flies are not very big, more of a medium size, but when he grows a little he will be able to fight against the larger flies. You know, that fly is queen of them all.

You said that mantises need water and that is correct, but this must be done in an unusual way, the water must be placed in a dropper and the mantis will drink from it. We left Giuseppe chewing on flies in his terrarium, but when we visited him a few days later we saw this. I panic. I thought that everything was over and that Giuseppe had died and that these were the dried remains of him. I thought the flies were poisonous, but then I looked away and found Giuseppe sitting on the other side of the box. So who was he?

Giuseppe, you had a child, but no, it turns out that our praying mantis has shed its skin. Insects often do that as they grow, after all, unlike humans, their skin doesn't grow with them, so sometimes they have to take it off like you do. we can see that it has grown much more than its old skin let's take this opportunity and take a look under the microscope there may be something interesting and immediately we see its head with big eyes we can see a very interesting texture of its eyes it looks like a beehive and here are probably its front legs to catch their victims, they have many sharp teeth which makes it impossible to escape when they hug you and here is the back leg on which there is a small hook, probably so it can grab several twigs and at this stage we need to raise the house from Giuseppe, otherwise it could die and now I will explain why when it molts the praying mantis it supports itself with its hind legs and hangs down to have enough space to get out of the skin.

It must be at least twice the height of its body if the height It turns out to be smaller so it won't be able to get out and it will hit its head on the ground until it dies. Unfortunately, at the time of molting, they are very defenseless and vulnerable and very often there are stupid mantises that choose a bad place and die, that's why we need a new, taller house to giuseppe here this glass should be good for a few months here we put a coconut fiber in the bottom but it contains a There are a lot of hairs stuck to it that would get in Giuseppe's way, so we are going to remove them with a lighter and, most importantly, not burn them.

Then we collected several twigs on the street and stones with moss to decorate his house, I even found some drought-resistant plants in the parking lot. Alright, Giuseppe, it's time to move into your new apartment to make this process more fun for him. We're going to give him a fly as a snack, but the most important test is yet to come. We found this. big

millipede

in the street that is almost twice the size of giuseppe and now they will face each other in an unequal fight because giuseppe is shorter, although on the other hand he is bigger in some ways, so I guess in the end it is a pretty fair fight .

The

millipede

immediately runs towards our praying mantis and approaches her. Giuseppe grabs it with a sudden movement and immediately begins to attack it with his mouth, but the millipede is not going to go down easily and clings to the surface trying to get out of the praying mantis' embrace. The praying mantis Giuseppe, on the other hand, is trying to stretch it out like it's chewing gum. He was starting to look like he was going to tear her apart, but instead he pulled her close to him and continued to level her. Oh look, he ate the middle part. millipede and divided it into two parts now he is fighting two millipedes while he is busy with the little millipede trying to slip through his fingers the big one is trying to escape but giuseppe doesn't give up and just looks at his crazy eyes that is a view of a serial killer finally the millipede gave up and allowed giuseppe to eat him comfortably for the first time in his life.

He ate a huge prey and that's why his belly really grew, notice how he moves to fit everything in, so in the end it looks like Giuseppe has a big terrarium, this won't be the last because mantises can grow a lot compared to their size current. Giuseppe is always growing, gaining strength and is ready for new tests in other videos. By the way, you can write down your ideas about who I should meet. the next you
