      Sometimes very shy, too:

      Moss Mantis, Inírida, Colombia One of the weirdest and most beautiful insects I've yet laid my eyes on. Be sure to zoom in, this one has a lot of detail. I'm thinking it is a Acanthops sp, but that's just a theory for now. Full disclosure: another tourist took this from a field trip and brought it back to the hotel. A practice I do not approve of, but since it was here anyway, I was too tempted to not capture it.<br /> <br /> https://www.jungledragon.com/image/53628/moss_mantis_-_front_view_inrida_colombia.html<br /> https://www.jungledragon.com/image/53627/moss_mantis_-_head_closeup_inrida_colombia.html<br /> https://www.jungledragon.com/image/53626/moss_mantis_-_side_view_inrida_colombia.html Colombia,Guainía,Inírida,South America,World
