Its name is a portmanteau of {{iw|wikipedia|praying mantis}}, a type of insect, and {{iw|wikipedia|manta ray}}, a kind of stingray. Preying Mantas move up and down in a small area, making them little of a threat to the [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]s. A Preying Mantas can be defeated from one of [[Submarine Yoshi]]'s torpedoes. | ||
