I've had praying mantises 'hatch' for several years, but this is the first time I've been able to film them actually emerging from their egg case. The first thumbnail likes a a short video that shows the praying mantis wriggling out of their egg case. Unfortunately, black ants begin to attack several of them, even before they are completely out of their egg case. Once the praying mantis are out of their egg case, their legs and bodies slowly unfold.
