Insect encyclopedia 2025: Giant Praying Mantis｜Queen of Autumn! Artistic Predation & Mating Secrets. - Video

Giant Praying Mantis
She's the queen of autumn insects!
You can find them all over Japan, and also in Taiwan, China, and Southeast Asia. They're about 70 to 95 millimeters long, and the females are bigger than the males. Their Japanese name, "kamakiri," comes from their big, sickle-like front legs.
After the summer beetles are gone, it's praying mantis season! They are popular all over the world. And it's no surprise, because the way they hunt is so amazing! It might seem a little cruel when they prey on other insects, but watching them capture their food is artistic and you just can't look away.
You can often find Giant Praying Mantises in grassy fields and mountains. They aren't fast runners, so they're very easy to catch! But be careful! Their sharp front legs can scratch you, and their strong jaws can give you a painful bite.
After watching them hunt, let's try to watch them find a partner.
Gently place a male mantis behind a female.
Be very careful so the female doesn't notice him, or she might eat him!
Praying mantises are the coolest insects!
