A Strong Ant
There are many kinds of ants in America. One kind is very strong. People are afraid of it, and animals are afraid of it, too.
These ants move in big groups. They eat all the animals on their way. They can kill and eat elephants, and they can eat wood houses. Sometimes even people are killed by them.
