» I think I saw a flying praying mantis? Bug dudes can you explain?
Do praying mantis have wings? Idk man I was walking over to my mailbox and I saw a big ass bug rustling in the bushes. I didn't want to get to close but it looked like a mantis. It was green black and brown and it had wings, never seen a bug like that before. Anyone know what it was?

Dolomedes is your guy. I literally have him tagged as Bug Dude
Common sense is the most uncommon thing in the world-some dude.
They have wings but limited flying ability.
I think it was stuck or something because it was sticking out of the bush flapping its wings and that was the weirdest thing I saw and was really confused on what bug it was. Didn't know they had wings. With the wings out they look A LOT bigger.

Only the breeders have wings and they shed them after mating. It's the only way for an ant queen to actually get anywhere to form a new colony without shitting on other ant territories.

Hair isn't a defining feature of mammals. The defining features of mammals are warm blood, air breathing, and milk producing. Plenty of mammals like the naked mole rat have no hair.

There's lots of female ants but most never go on to mate and are functionally sterile.

The other arthropod ("bugs") groups are sea spiders, springtails, and crustaceans (and arachnids, insects, Myriapods)
Rolly pollies are crustaceans like crabs, for example

The short answer is the reproduction strategy of ants does not work if every female ant can lay eggs so only a few females become breeders. When they reach sexual maturity, they fly away, find mate, shed their wings and start a new colony as a queen.

Dude fuck the ocean, that place is scary as hell. I recently learned the angle fish from Finding Nemo are like 3 feet long
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/JaekelopterusThe restoration picture they posted makes them look "not that bad" but then I remembered they're 8 feet long and live in the ocean and probably don't look as friendly if they existed.

The male cubs get kicked out and they find their own pride to take over.
