The mantis shrimp is properly neither a shrimp nor a terrestrial "mantis," but bears characteristics common to both. It has a shrimplike, segmented abdomen and carapace, swimmerets ("paddling" appendages beneath the abdomen), antennae, and large clawlike appendages, which are formed like jackknives, and which resemble both in action and at rest the appendages of a garden variety praying mantis. It is similarly aggressive in overpowering its prey.
Yeah, boil mine in beer and let me throw them on the grill - I'll take 10 or 12.
