Bulldog Ant
These ants can grow up to 40 millimetres long and often nest underground. They have very good vision which assists them in killing their prey and protecting their nest. If an intruder gets too close to the nest these ants will attack by coming out of the nest and chase the intruder away. They are able to sting animals by holding the animal in its powerful jaws and then using their sting to inject the animal with venom. These stings can be more powerful then bee stings and more than one sting can occur. These stings can also be dangerous to humans, particularly people who have allergies to bee stings.
