There was a small interesting story about Hilda when she was still in her school life.

Hilda hates praying mantis since her childhood, but she was constantly warned by her mum that not to kill one and her mum told her that praying mantis were good luck; she should treat them with kindness.

But Hilda didn’t think as the same way, because she had witnessed a mantis devouring another insect; she was dismay by its ferocity as she held a magnifying glass to the head of the mantis, she had the thought to kill it on the spot. One day, the mantis alighted on the pages of her magazine, she closed it. But she racked by feelings of guilt from the way she treated the mantis.

Since from the night, Hilda made up her mind to be a botanist and decides to treat them nice.
