The anteater, with its ants-specific body (a long snout, a tube-shaped mouth, and a thin and long tongue capable of secreting mucus), became the nightmare of the young creature. But in fact, the anteaters are also picking up soft persimmons, and most of the objects they attack are tame termites, if they encounter man-eating ants or marching ants, the anteaters are not so easy to get.
Red Bull Head Dog Ants go out
However, although man-eating ants and marching ants are strong, after all, their size is limited and they can only rely on the strength of the group. If the number is less than 10,000, it is difficult to form a sufficient destructive force. If you want to choose the most destructive ants in a single body, you should also look for the land of Oceania. There is a super ant here that is very large (relative to ants) and has a body that secretes toxins, the bulldog ant.
Red Bull-headed Dog Ants are vigilant
Oceania is also a magical land, because this continent is isolated from the sea from other continents, so many strange species have been born. If nothing else, seven of the ten most poisonous creatures in the world originate in Oceania. So if you want to survive in the land of Oceania, it is obviously not possible without two brushes. Even the ants here are all "skilled" masters. For example, today we are going to introduce the world's largest ant, the pit bull ant.
The Red Bull-headed Dog Ant opens its upper jaw
There are many species of bulldog ants, and according to scientific statistics, there are about 90 species of bulldog ants in Oceania. Not all of these 90 species of pit bull ants are also very large, and small bulldog ants have no advantage in size except for venom compared to ordinary ants. But relatively large breeds, such as the Red Bull Dog Ant, are the existence of the ant flock. The largest Red Bull-Headed Dog ant found so far can reach a body length of up to 40 mm (not a queen, just a normal worker ant).
Red Bull-headed Dog ants forage
The most different thing about red bull head ants from other ants is that they like to rely on their own strength, and when they go out to forage, red bull head dogs do not like to cooperate collectively, but prefer to solve problems with their sharp jaws and stingers. How terrible are the stingers of the Red Bull-headed Dog Ant? It is said that after a person is stabbed, there is even a risk of death if left untreated.
Red Bull Head Dog Ant Hunting
Of course, the Red Bull Head Dog Ant is not completely uncooperative. The main reason why they like to act on their own strength is because they are too powerful in the ant family. Other ants do not have vision, but the Red Bull-headed Dog Ant can reach two meters away with its "superior ant" height. Such vision is almost equivalent to being able to see 20 kilometers away. Think about it, if a group of red bull-headed dog ants appeared in front of the anteaters, don't have too many of them, even if there are three hundred, I'm afraid it would be an anteaters who can't afford it.
