minus-squareTyoda@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up41·edit-21 年前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) Cephalotes (Door head ant) 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, Cephalotes
minus-squaresalvaria@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up18·1 年前How about the Saharan Silver Ant? They are specifically adapted to not get cooked in the sunny desert!
minus-squarecasmael@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 年前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
