Praying Mantis Vs Wasp | Wild Europe | National Geographic Wild
Worker wasps venture outside the colony to seek the ideal building materials. However, even for the most aggressive wasps, life outside the colony holds no certainties. Despite the danger posed by the wasps' lethal sting, the praying mantis, a skilful wasp assassin and a camouflage expert, relies on its predator instincts and fearlessly strikes. As a result, it could be argued that the praying mantis is the most skilled insect hunter on the planet.
Witness the wasp assassin in action in Iberia's Woodlands as part of Wild Europe, 7th and 14th May at 6pm, on National Geographic WILD UK.

They are killers. They kill with unbelievable precision. They fight Kung Fu style and are seen in Japan as a symbol of vigilance - the mantises. Their triangular head with its unique flexibility is conspicuous. Two overdimensioned eyes fixate the distance to their prey rapidly and three-dimensionally. The chest segment of the mantis is prolonged and equipped with spiny appendages that can spear their prey as fast as a jack knife. The mysterious aura that surrounds the praying mantis has a lot to do with the fact that they are rarely seen. They have adapted to their surroundings perfectly. No matter whether leaves, blossoms, tree bark, sandy floors or even orchids - the mantis adjusts to all environments.
We observe mantises with our cameras whilst they are hunting, when they shed their skin and whilst breeding and eventually the females practicing their cannibalism. We were also on hand when the female produces a nest of foam on which to lay her eggs; all filmed with time lapse and real-time cameras. A film, that comprehensively documents the secret life of the mantises for the very first time and provides us with unique footage thanks to state of the art equipment.
