Ants are social insects.

This means they do not live on their own but in a community.

Ants tend to look after the community rather than themselves.


 

Ants need to protect the nest and the community from enemies. The worker ants have many ways of fighting these enemies. Many ants have fiery stings. Some bite with their jaws and then spray a burning fluid into the wound.
