    Any time I come across a red velvet ant, I’ll use my pocket knife to cut the body into its 3 main sections, then sit and wait…

    Every single time, within about 15 to 20 minutes, a whole army of other ants will come along to carry the parts away. A part of me wants to believe the other ants keep the parts as trophies LOL!
