If that beetle is 3" long, then those ants are far to large to be fire ants. I'm from eastern New Mexico, and we just called those 'red ants'. Then I moved to Houston and found out what FIREANTS really are... very nasty small red ants that sting like hell.
Don't underestimate the fire ants nor any other deadly insects. Seems like the logical thing would be for the beetle to fly off becuase the beetle is cleary outmatced.
@Nightavenger2 No mean, opening its back shell and trying to fly off would be awful, the ants would get into its soft back part and sting it once and the game would be over, as it is now, it is almost immune to the ants attacks, if it just runs it could make it.
oh..thanks God for saving the beetle.. and i could tell the ants really have great power.. it can stop the beetle , luckily the beetle is defensive :)
I live in Budaghers NM, near Santa Fe... And they have those beetles there (they stink really badly) and i put them with ants, which always devoure(sp) them
I think those are harvester ants, don't know of any fire ants living in New Mexico, they all migrated to the east from Texas, fire ants are not natural to the U.S.,, they came from South America by a stupid scientist like the one who brought African Bees.
you have no idea. after being their for only 30 seconds i had at least 20 ants all over my legs, and i only relized they were there after they started stinging me (which hurt like hell)
FYI, They aren't fire ants, fire ants are much smaller. Those are a species of Rough Harvester Ant(sometimes called the "red ant"depending on variety) and yah, they have make massive shield nests. Rough harvesters have a decent sting but should be left alone for a more important reason as they are very beneficial to the local ecology. Don't stamp em out ! The stink beatle has a very hard exosteleton and a repugnant odor that may have saved it even from this onslaught.
dont mess with ants, that beetle might have gotten lucky and survived but i doubt it...although i will refer you to the ants vs. the iraqi spider. bottom line, dont mess with iraqi spiders either lol!
Cool video. Normally if your a big bug next to an ant nest, ant hill blah blah blah they will kill you and drag you to the queen or the babies! Anyway, who won, i could not tell?
