@SirPerfectful you sound pretentious.. better not bring that to the field. Animals bite because they bite. They don't need a reason. Trying to personify animals to make them seem moral is not good stewardship. It's just like the idiots who tell people that sharks only bite humans by mistake. No, they're apex predators and they'll bite anything that might provide a meal. There is no morality in nature. If you want to be a good steward once you leave the classroom and get into the field remember that honesty is the best tool

I remember playing with Leafcutter ants as a kid. Never once did they bite me. However, they do have spines on their back that do sting a bit. I also grew with Trapjaw ants. Also never bitten or stung. But it was fun putting sticks in front of them and hearing their jaws snap at it. You guys should go there at around May. You'll get to see the Leafcutter ant queens flying all over the place during their migration. They are huge, bigger than a quarter. Quite a spectacle!

We have some big orangy-red bull ants in western east Texas. They weigh about 1-3/4 to 2 pounds each. Some people mistake them for coyotes when they do their mating call. My brother is an underwater welder for various energy companies and sometimes his old seal pup buddies. He told me that those Texas Bull Ants bites feel just like what a white shark bite feels like and if they sting you it's worse than when a hoop snake pokes you with his hard pointed tail. He also said that he would probably rather be gored by a Texas Horny Toad than bit by a Texas Bull Ant.
“I thought he was lost or sleepy but nope he’s wide awake” 😂😂😂
That ant is CRAZY on the thumb nail
That lone solider ant needs a promotion 😂 he stood on bidness. Give him his own colony and queen ant now.
this channel has been a huge inspiration to me as a kid i wanted to be a marine biologist. i had a fascination with sharks as I saw jaws when I was 4 years old.

Trap jaw ants are awesome. My favorite species of ants. They not only use their jaws to hunt, but also to escape predators. A trap jaw ant may strike at a predator so that its mandibles bounce of, catapulting the ant over 20 cm away, giving it plenty of room to escape, and potentially crippling the predator. They can also strike at the ground, launching themselves into the air. That's how it managed to evade you like it did, and eventually "teleport" itself off of the table. Also, if you watch them move around when they're exploring, or on the prowl, they have this really interesting way of moving about. Sort of curious and inquisitive.
i wanna see Coyote get stung by a normal honey bee, his reaction would be like "come on sting me already (bee already stung)"
My biggest bug related fear is that I will squeeze them too hard with the forceps
all my homies love Mark Vins
All respect to you guys. You guys never disappoint to entertain.
the dracula ant (Mystrium camillae) apparently has faster mandibles, three times faster than the trap jaw ant

I think your bsi is wrong for this one. You didnt give it a good bite. You let it knick you. Remember on the bullet ant, its mouth was too small for the forearm so it had to be moved to the finger webbing? Well you know as well as everyone that 145mph bite force would tear clean through the webbing of your finger and then it would start eating the skin and that is why your bsi is made from fear and anxiety

I would recommend Psalmopoeus (tarantula, south america, wide range). It's intermediate species, sharing traits from old and new world. What makes bite fun, its venom has something similar to capsaicin (thing that causes burning feeling in peppers).. It does not send You to hospital, but pain is described as rather intense/painful burning feeling that can last some time. These tarantulas are also rather defensive so not hard to get bitten, lol.
This channel keeps getting more and more better ^^. I really hope you guys can hear what I have to share with the possibility for the new pain index you guys are doin The kings of pain show has tons of interesting animals to check out if you’re open for hearing about it

Trapjaw ant
When I first saw my local species from the genus odontomachus, I picked it up with out any hesitation, even I knew it was venomous and could sting me, and did not disappoint I got stung 😂😂😂, it was not very bad and did not last long though, kinda like a nettle. Btw a fun fact about them, they could flee from predators by closing their jaws on the ground and launch themselves away.
There is a colony of trapjaw ants in my school. I even caught 3 queen trapjaw ants and I can say for 100% sure they don't make a sound when they close their jaws. Its just an edited sound.

Fun little fact. Trap Jaw Ants can actually launch themselves into the air with there mandibles.

I’m excited I’m visiting Costa Rica and the end of the month for two weeks 😊
I wonder what a bite from an army ant would be like. Those ones with the giant hook-like pincers.
You know its a good day when they post
all im wondering is, what kind of prey an ant would need to catch that it evolved such fast jaws? also love that you keep your composure when bitten or stung out in the wild like with that leaf-cutter ant. most people would just swat it and be done with it. you try to get it off without hurting it in any way.
I was guessing it was a Trapjaw Ant the whole time. I definitely knew it would hurt. I'm surprised the sting felt worse than the bite.
