watercrawl Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I'm fairly new here, but I didn't know where else I could share this....I'm laughing my ass off right now. I was reading a few threads on here and one about a mantis shrimp came up so of course I googled Mantis Shrimp and this was among the results: Link to comment
Alexraptor Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 The guy in the vid is an idiot. No animal likes to be cornered, let alone a mantis with the ability to crack or impale your finger. Respect is very important for any animal, especially ones that can inflict harm on you. I can for instance hand feed my G. Smithii, but I only do it on his terms, he has to come to me, I don't try to go to him. Link to comment
LongPig Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 That guy should corner something that kills him. He's breathing air that's better used for smarter people. Link to comment
Alexraptor Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Hey, that was just a warning blow. If it really wanted to it could have theoretically killed him by impaling the dudes finger with risk of blood infection setting in if the wound gets contaminated. But seriously, Chiragra's are notorious for being one of the more aggressive of the Gonodactylids, not wise to mess with them. Link to comment
