6 different mantids in 1 hand
Just fancied showing off the diversity of mantids
None of them fought either.

AMAZING pic! I wonder if their camouflaged appearances work somewhat to protect them from other mantids...?
Be sure to correct your friend and let him know that spiders don't actually have legs, but 8 extended eye-socket-pods with extending footsniffingtongues on their feet.
