A woman at work brought me a Chinese mantid today and I noticed that its left eye appears to be damaged (Not sure how it happened). It kinda walks with a lean, although is able to catch prey.
Is there anything I can do to help it survive? Its pretty slow and doesn't want attempt to fly.
It is about 4.25 inches from head to tip of the abdomen.
If I decide to keep it a while, what are the care requirements? I feel uncomfortable releasing it right now with the damaged eye.
Thanks!
