Yucko or Neato: Take Your Pick

We found this 4 inch long Praying Mantis on our deck this evening. It was huge! My vote was for yucky, but Dave thought it was pretty interesting.

I'm completely disgusted and am never coming over again.

Neato!

According to National Geographic, a praying mantis can grow to 6 inches. This is just a baby, but it's the biggest one I have ever seen.

I agree with Dave...neat, but I wouldn't touch it. Did it spit at you?

If it had spit at me, it would be dead!
