Well if we have to do it ourselves...
- Fungus-growing ants (obvious pick)
- Slaver ants
- Bullet ant
....
- Honeypot ant (10. because they should make the list but I don't want to look at them)
remove 'm.' from wikipedia links!
Mystrium camillae: They snap their mandibles to produce the fastest movement of an animal appendage, at 90 meters/second.
And they're from the subfamily of Dracula ants, which drink what's essentially the blood of their babies.
At the bottom of that list...fire ants. May they burn in eternal hell!
That one with the head like a penny and uses it like a door is pretty cool.
Right! Added!
Whoah. Holy fuck ants are cool. Might abandon my career and become and entomologist.
What about Chimera Ant
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!
