Here's a video, apropos of nothing at all, of an orchid mantis, one of the world's most beautiful insects.
Looking for all the would like a beautiful pink orchid, the mantis actually attracts more pollen-seeking insects than even a regular orchid. The difference is that visiting insects never leave, gobbled up by the voracious mantis.The Southeast Asian insect is not exactly camouflaged - it WANTS to be seen - but it's certainly in disguise.
