A picture of a Leafcutting Ant
Leafcutting ants, which live in the southeastern United States and other tropical areas, cultivate a species of fungus in their nests that is used to feed the colony. They are called leafcutting ants because the workers cut off pieces of leaves and carry them back to the nest to fertilize the fungus gardens. ßíäåêñ.Ìåòðèêà
