another Mantis moult

Never knew they did this , how long do they live ? Reminds me of the Predator movies . Nicely photographed .
 
Thanks.
There are so many different types, but generally females live around a year to 18 months, males up to a year max, but many around 6 months. They moult every few weeks until there adult moult, when some get colourful wings.
 
Amazing detail (y)
