The '''mantis'''{{Note|{{Nihongo foot|カマキリ|Kamakiri}}}} is a [[bug]] in the {{SER}} that has appeared in every game to date. Starting in {{CF}}, when the mantis is approached, it will raise its head in defense. If disturbed long enough, it flies away into the air with a buzzing noise.

In the games that the mantis appears in, it is an uncommon bug that the player can encounter, and can be found on [[flower]]s. In {{NH}}, it can be caught from [[spring]] to [[fall]].

It is unclear as to what type of mantis appears in ''Animal Crossing'', as there are roughly 2000 species world-wide. However, it seems likely that it is ''Tenodera aridifolia'', the Japanese giant mantis, a large species of mantis that can be found across East to Southeast Asia.

Mantids can be traced back to over 35 million years ago, and are related to [[cockroach]]es. They can be found across temperate and tropic areas all across the world, and can fly. They are strictly carnivorous, and rarely think twice about attacking larger animals.
