Mantis

Hello! I’m a mantis. They say I’m 25 million years
old. Boys and girls, like my other fossil friends, I was
preserved in amber. But my life history is somewhat
interesting. One day, a bee and a spider started to
chase me.

When I was trying to escape them, I got caught
in a drop of resin. Then I got stuck in the resin to-
gether with the bee and the spider. It’s good that we
got caught because I can talk to you now. As you can

see that my friends and I look very much like our
mantis friends living today.

Mantises have al-
ways been, and will
always be, mantises.
My fossil in amber in
the picture is the
proof of this.
