Well if we have to do it ourselves...
- Fungus-growing ants (obvious pick)
- Slaver ants
- Formica rufa (spits acid from its butt)
- Saharan Silver Ant (adapted to the scorching sun)
- Bullet ant
- Giant Amazonian Ants (possibly largest workers)
- (some tiny ant?)
....
- Honeypot ant (10. because they should make the list but I don't want to look at them)
edit: added Formica rufa, Saharan silver ant
That one with the head like a penny and uses it like a door is pretty cool.
Whoah. Holy fuck ants are cool. Might abandon my career and become and entomologist.
How about the Saharan Silver Ant? They are specifically adapted to not get cooked in the sunny desert!
Dude these guys look sick. They can almost walk as fast as me!!!!!!!!! But they’re regular ant sized!!!!!!!! That’s fucking off the hook
Neat! Hadn't heard of it before!
What about Chimera Ant
