    Absolutely ants. The sheer volume of every ant in the world working together would be horrifying

      That working together part adds so much to the ants’ advantage. Even if the ants’ entire strategy was “bite lions, no bite ants” they’d absolutely win

        Looked to see if there was a visual representation of the number of ants in the world and found this

        So yeah, would say they’d be covered tail to nose.

        Your scale is off; imagine an Olympic sized swimming pool filled with ants with a lion in there somewhere.

        Now imagine 39,000 of those pools, each with its own lion and ants.

          Man, elon musk is getting real weird with his hobby of building pools just to fill them with ants and lions.

          Why’s he need so many, anyways???
