The orchid mantis is a bug whose brilliant colors and petal-shaped limbs give it the look of a flower. This masterful mimicry allows it to hide from predators in among the orchids. But oh this fraudulent flower! It lures other insects in to drink its nectar… And makes a meal of them instead! Imagine! To behold a beautiful bud… only to discover it’s a bug instead! A repulsive revelation indeed!
