Don’t try to smell this flower! The Orchid Mantis is not only a staring contest champion, but also a master of disguise. Their large, petal-like limbs act as camouflage to help them lure and catch prey with blinding speed. By masquerading as a flower, the Orchid Mantis can catch an abundance of insects that mistake it for a blossom. See if you can spot our Orchid Mantis and many other fascinating invertebrates at Butterfly Pavilion. #OrchidMantis #Invertebrate #ButterflyPavilion #CultureForAll #EducationForAll 📸: Joanne Ashton
