That peacock mantis is awesome. Don't the females bite the heads off the males?

I often heard while growing up that cardinals and blue jays and such type birds were considered bullies of the bird world but since they were particularly rare birds in New England compared to sparrows and chickadees etc... I never saw the behavior. This is the first example of their alleged collective jerkiness I've seen.
