"Honeypot" ants swell up to a huge size with Honey

Honeypot ants have to be seen to be believed. During wet season, certain ants consume huge amounts of nectar, making their abdomens swell up to the size of a grape. Then, during dry season, they provide the other ants with food by throwing the nectar back up again. Yum!

In certain places, these honey ants are considered candy treats in the wild. The aboriginal people will search for these for a nutritious snack. Aside from the grub you see sworming around, these are rather tasty I heard! Please watch video below for an adventure in the wild on persuit for a taste of these honey ant!
