This is Manty. We're best friends. )

Once, when I was much younger, I was swimming in my family's (above ground, but still full of nice refreshing water) pool. My mother, keen animal lover, noticed that there was some sort of small sac thing on the deck. Too young to be disgusted, we looked closer.

The thing split open and a thousand very wee preying mantises started pouring out - unfortunately straight into the pool. We then spent the next twenty minutes or so carefully rescuing the little creatures, me blowing on them a little to dry them off, then carefully setting them on the dry portion of the deck.

They all promptly lined up and stared at us, undoubtedly thinking, "You save my life. We no eat you, but we thinking about it!"

:D
