There are about 20,000 different species of ants, and ants can be found on every single continent except Antarctica. Ant colonies have millions of ants living in them. An ant's life cycle has four stages of development: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Most ants build a type of mound or anthill that they live in. Most mounds are built of dirt or sand but some ants use twigs to make them stronger. Other ants live in logs or trees that have fallen down. Carpenter ants build nests in logs or even houses. An ant’s body has three parts, the head, the trunk, and the metasoma, which is the rear of the ant. An ant's body is covered with a tough armor called the exoskeleton. Ants have six legs that are all attached to their trunk. Did you know that ants never sleep? They spend their entire life awake and working on whatever task they have to complete. #ants #allaboutants #antfactsforkids We upload a video every MONDAY!
