The mantis impales the hummingbirdâs chest with its foreclaws. As you can see from the photographs this hungry mantis captured and killed a hummingbird not much smaller than itself. The mantis used its spiny left foreleg to impale the hummingbird through the chest while leaving his right leg free.
Time Frame. The normal time frame for sperm to live inside a woman's body is two to three days. However, sperm can live inside the body for five days as long as the conditions are favorable. For the conditions to be favorable, fertile cervical mucus must be present.
Sperm can live for only a few hours inside the vagina, and even less than that outside the human body, exposed to the open air. If the sperm survive to enter the less hostile environment of the female reproductive tract beyond the cervix, they can survive for up to five days.
