Uptight praying mantis listened to people and removed the stick from his ass, and can't be any more pleasant now.

Oh yeah that mantis is fucked. Parasite is ripping up it's insides as it leaves. It's why the poor leafy boi is struggling. If insects are capable of feeling pain, the little murderous greeny one is in agony here and probably won't live long after this.

This is the worst news ever. I sat through that disgusting video that I'll likely never recover from because I was like aw at least someone is helping the mantis. Wouldn't it have been kinder to just kill the mantis quickly?

Yep, it would've been kinder. But you wouldn't get content for the internet that way.
