i was just thinking about how ants are amazing predators and will kill anything they can catch,that led me to a thought,what if ants were a bit bigger ,say 70mm or 80mm,would they cause massive problems for humans and could they have stopped us from being top of the food ladder?An ant that big with a large colony would prove to be a massive problem,surley nothing would be safe ???????????????????????
:shock:
its often over looked, because we dont tend to think of ourselves as part of the animal kingdom, but humans are the most ferocious predetors this world has ever seen, i dont think we'd have any problem dealing with giant ants, unless they where as intelligent, or more intelligent than us
good point,but what if ants that big had evolved befor humans,would we have been able to evolved with a predator like that lurking about
no problem dealing with giant ants, i strongly disergree they we be loads of the massive things everywhere it would be a living breaving nightmare its all ready exremly bad with the fire ants species if they were any bigger...... the trouble it would cause would be absolute horrific it alreay is bad anouth without making it any worse.........they will have massive tunnels and big scary looking jaws........and just think we wound'nt be able to keep ants anymore thank god there not that big :!:
miszt we both have different views again is there anything we do agree on? lol :-k
evolve with ants of that size i dont think we would of even lasted a day :!:
thats what i think,one or two ants of that size would be no problem,just stamp on them, but a colony would be diffrent,think how fast they would move,and how much weight they could pick up,i dont think there would be many animals on the planet that could cope with an attack like that
or like this :D http://videovat.com/videos/1934/juicy-fruit-giant-ant.aspx
But if ants would be that big (7-8cm), thay had to grow a lot slower, needed more territory for hunting etc. ... ... so there couldn't be that many in the same region. Also if there is a new species, there's always something which is hunting it ... ... there would be a balance then. And with about 7cm they also maybe good food for our former ancestors ... .
I don't think anyone can predict what will happen ...
i dont think any animals would lol apart from fish/birds :)
well army ants have killed people at there size so and army colony with giants ants would be a living nightmare

i agree it would be very scary indeed,espially with army ants on the rampage! but i guess in some conternants us humans would be safe from them as they wont be everywhere but near anouth so it would be very hard :-k
