Awesome read .... articles like these remind us to keep looking in our backyard, before we venture out to the moon.

I'll tell ya, I used to keep a Peacock Mantis some years ago and I SWEAR that it could see me coming to the tank from all the way down the hall! It was pretty cool to keep one in a tank by itself, but the novelty wore off after a year and I sold it. Plus being scared to stick my hand in the tank was getting old too....lol
