minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink36•18 days agoAbsolutely ants. The sheer volume of every ant in the world working together would be horrifying
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink24•18 days agoThat working together part adds so much to the ants’ advantage. Even if the ants’ entire strategy was “bite lions, no bite ants” they’d absolutely win
minus-squaremetaStaticlinkfedilink8•18 days ago“Bite lion and also any ant not from my colony” would also be a winning move
minus-squareTheRealTetriczlinkfedilink7•18 days agoI just imagine lions covered in ants from tail to nose.
minus-squareEm Adespotonlinkfedilink22•edit-218 days agoYour scale is off; imagine an Olympic sized swimming pool filled with ants with a lion in there somewhere. Now imagine 39,000 of those pools, each with its own lion and ants.
minus-squareEm Adespotonlinkfedilink12•18 days agoIt’s not. But being an apex predator, there weren’t a lot even when their range covered most of Africa, Europe and the Middle East.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•18 days agoNow that’s a visual. All the thrashing a lion could do until it dies of exhaustion would barely make a dent in the ant population.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•18 days agoMan, elon musk is getting real weird with his hobby of building pools just to fill them with ants and lions. Why’s he need so many, anyways???
minus-square@shadowedcrosslink9•18 days agoLooked to see if there was a visual representation of the number of ants in the world and found this So yeah, would say they’d be covered tail to nose.

Just a casual 500 and odd billion ants per lion.
That doesn’t seem like a lot of lions :(
