This ant is alleged to be the ringleader of a ruthless food network : extracting liquids from bees and other ants, and feeding the leftovers to its larvae.
Be on the lookout for its bright yellow mandibles and reddish-brown head and thorax. If seen, the Red Bull Ant should be considered venomous : one sting from its tail can result in three days of pain and swelling.The Red Bull Ant is the sixth and final coin in the six-coin series.
