Fact of the week: You are what you eat

One myth that most people say is that the ants ate. Ants may bite, tear off parts or even sting but those six legged buggers only drink.

The definition of drinking is quite broad. Water, by products of aphids or other insects, insect blood(Hemolymph. Also the same stuff that most spiders drink.)

But there is a species of ants aka Dracula ants that drink the hemolymph of their young larvae. Of course, the larvae are fed as well as drained at a sustainable level. 

It is not exsanguination. Afterall you can shave a sheep several times but skin it once.
