praying mantis

Not all mantis are cannibalistic either...

I know the Far Asian ones are known to be cannibalistic.
 
The most common large mantis in the USA is the chinese, it is the one they sell egg masses for in the gardening magazines. They seldom live longer than one year but occassionally longer.

He shouldn't have gone to sleep, lol.
Actually many species of mantids don't wait, the female eats the males head DURING sex. Like males of the human type apparently mantid males don't usually use their brains while getting laid.
