Finding insets and pitting them against each other is an old Japanese tradition:

This was one of the things that inspired the creator of Pokemon. That and Ultraseven.

Insect cruelty or not, I am absolutely fascinated by this. I'm finding myself placing bets in my head. Go mantis!

I just think it's so strange that they know to fight. I'm pretty sure if I put two bugs in a cage they would just chill and be bugs.

I also love that while the bugs are fighting the you see random camera flash.

But unlike Mr. Vick, I feel like I don't deserve to be strung up by the testicles and have Stag Beetles eat my eyeballs. But yeah, these vids are pretty nifty. ;)
