Interviewer: "Hey, Gulf Fritillary! What happened to you? Something take a chunk out of your wings?"

Miss Gulf Frit: "I dunno. I was just fluttering around the passionflower vine and something grabbed me."

Interviewer: "Do you have any idea what happened?"

Miss Gulf Frit: "Sorry, no. It happened so fast but I managed to escape. A miss is as good as a mile, right? 

Interviewer (turning to praying mantis):  "Ms. Mantis, do you have any idea what happened here?"

Ms. Mantis: "What? You talking to me? You talking to me?"

Interviewer: "Yes, you're the only other one in the passionflower patch."

Ms. Mantis (smiling): "It wasn't me, y'hear. It wasn't me! Okay, well, maybe it was me. I was hungry. I'm still hungry. I missed!" 

Interviewer: "Well, a miss is as good as a smile."
