Australian term originated from South East Queensland describes the underweight sticklike appearance of a drug affected person who is trying to walk to or from the nearest 24 hour shop.
The female version is more commonly seen and can be found in areas near Service Stations.
Easily identified by their typically weird walking style and very underweight frame, the crack mantis is not typically considered a safety threat but can become
agitated if their path of travel is impeded.
A Crack Mantis is rarely far from their home (nest) due to the effort required to coordinate a journey. 50m can be known to take over 30 minutes and path of travel is always different due to repetitive jerks, pauses or lunges. Males are not so common possibly due to the known mating habits of the female.

Hey mate check that crack mantis heading to the servo. I bet those overgrown rental units around the corner is the nest.
She might just get their before dark, still 30m to go.
