African army ants

African army ants are highly organized, nomadic predators known for their aggressive foraging behavior. Lacking permanent nests, they form large, mobile colonies that move constantly, guided by trail pheromones. Their colonies can include hundreds of thousands to millions of ants that work together to hunt and capture prey such as insects, small animals, and even reptiles. These ants are blind and rely on their collective sense of smell and touch. Their coordinated, relentless raids often result in the destruction of prey, making them key ecosystem players that control insect populations and influence the environment.
