We would like to thank this student and her mom and dad for letting us have "Lema" visit our room. Lema is a beautiful Praying Mantis. We were very excited to learn how to take care of a Praying Mantis. We learned that they can live in a small container as long as you provide them a place to climb and hide. You also need to keep the environment they live in moist and they love to eat crickets. We also learned that they live during the summer and spring months and part of the fall.
The first time Lema came to visit us she was living in a recycled fruit container. The next day we were excited to see Lema in a new house. Dad also came by during the day and fed Lema several crickets that she enjoyed throughout the day.
