It builds shallow nests that cover a large home range. Most of the nest is made of shallow tunnels that foraging ants use to travel and to come out far from the nest centre.1

Urefu

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?

Hatari kwa watu: InaumaInaweza kuuma sana, lakini karibu kamwe si jambo zito.

Akidunga

Osha na upoze sehemu zilizodungwa.
Mtu akipata shida ya kupumua, uso au koo likivimba, au akijisikia kuzimia, hiyo ni dharura ya mzio: piga namba ya dharura.

Daima piga namba ya dharura kwanza (112, 000, 911). Huu ni mwongozo wa jumla wa huduma ya kwanza, si ushauri wa kitabibu. Misingi ya huduma ya kwanza

Kaa salama

Kamwe usimguse, kumkamata wala kumchokoza mnyama wa porini, hata akiwa mdogo, na hata akionekana amelala au amekufa.
Mpe nafasi. Ukikutana naye, tulia, rudi nyuma polepole na umwache aende zake.
Akikudunga: tulia, usitikisike, piga namba yako ya dharura (112, 000, 911) au nenda hospitali haraka. Kumbuka alivyoonekana, picha husaidia.

Hakuwindi wewe. Hutumia sumu yake kukamata chakula au kujilinda, na hupendelea zaidi kujificha. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

African stink ant takriban km 0.29 kwa saa (0.18 mph)

Ukweli

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

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

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

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