dead mantis eh? that sucks. that species is a spearer right?
anyways since you still got it around you might like to know that they are edible. in fact mantises make a popular cantonese dish known as shako which means "****ing shrimp" because they urinate when they were thrown in the pot live... so eventually they figured out that they had to stab em first to empty the bowels, then cook em. just an idea... you know, completing the circle of life
