I found a praying mantis in my shopping cart today just as I entered the store. It was a large brown one, like this one here. Must have come off of some of the bushes in the parking lot before the carts were brought in. It fought me and tried to run away, but I managed to scoop it up without hurting it. I left the store and let it crawl onto some bushes at the edge of the property. There's a nice backyard on the other side of the fence, so maybe it'll live a while.
Mantis thread?

I have only seen a life preying mantis once in my life. I don't know where these things are hiding all the time but I always miss them.

OP again. This was only my 2nd time seeing one in person. About 14 years ago, my grandmother caught one near her place of work. We kept it in a terrarium and regularly fed it crickets from a pet store.

I can see lots of these gals at my parents house during summer, in fact I picked up one a few days ago. She tried to get away from me a few times but eventually I think she figured out I wasn't going to hurt her. She then proceeded to attack my face.
