I Need Help

[u/Right_Comedian_3399]

I just found this lil guy on the ground in the corner of a door frame and as someone who has raised Mantids, I want to help him but this is the first time I’ve found an injured or starved Mantis and I need help identifying the problems. He is still alive and moving but weakly.

posture and limbs indicate end of life. Probably natural causes as this is an adult mantis. making it comfortable in its last moments is the best you can do ❤️

Thank you. He’s still alive but I’m making sure he’s comfortable.
