The African stink ant is a large ant that lives in Sub-Saharan Africa. It is one of the few ant species that can form very big colonies, with up to 5000 workers in one nest. It is a predator that hunts animals as large as beetles.1

Dintlha

1

A skin secretion from the frog stops the ants from attacking it, which lets the two live together.1

2

The frog Phrynomantis microps sometimes lives inside the nests, using them as a burrow.1

3

Foraging ants use shallow tunnels to travel without risking predation.1

4

A nest can hold as many as 5000 workers, a number very few ant species can match.1
