Some tropical mantis are known to eat frogs, lizards, mice, and even birds and insects.
The sudden and powerful strike from the mantis has only 50 to 70 milliseconds to complete.
Some 400 years ago, while watching a praying mantis send a cicada, Wang Lang famous martial artist was inspired to create a new form of kung fu. The mantis style - with refined hand and arm positions, strikes and game - looks like many of the positions and movements of a praying mantis hunting.
In the rainforests of Costa Rica, some snakes have become highly specialized predators. Incredibly, there are snakes that feed on snails and slugs only, while others specialize in scorpions!
Chunk-headed snakes are fully adapted to life in trees. They have a prehensile tail and an uncanny ability to cast their eyes downward. These unique adaptations help in finding snake sleeping lizards, their main prey.
Costa Rica has over 1,000 species of butterflies. The spectacular butterfly owl, with its 13 inch wingspan, is one of the largest in the world. They live in lowland forests and are mainly active at dusk and dawn.
Anteaters feed on termites, ants, bees, and sometimes, even.
Adult tamanduas estimated 50-80 visit colonies of termites and ants every day, which consume about 9,000 insects.
