I'm with the pray mantis because i think they are inteminating, smart, and knows how to handle its food by taring it to shreds.

Damselflies are insects. They have three stages in their life cycle: egg - larva - adult. They have a long and slender abdomen, two pairs of wings and three pairs of long legs. They also have very large eyes.

I`m doing mickey mantis, the real bug name is praying mantis . they get there name because of there front legs,they have them in a way where they are praying. thats little odd... even they are so wierd because they are like big cats, they stalk there pray or what for it to come to them by passing by. Even eating their pray head first, awkward....thats a mickey mantis too. temper with other speices.
