Urban ants

Urban ants.

Urban ants were found at Manhattan sidewalks (NYC)

Researchers have noticed when a person throws a bit of a crumb or cookie the ants will then come and carry it away.

Ants love junk food especially sugar, meat and processed food. Ants love junk food when it’s thrown on the sidewalk.

Ants  love to eat junk more than their actual diet which are insects.  Sometimes ants have a tendency to eat each other if there is nothing to eat.

Unusually ants are supposed to stick to their diet but ants would prefer to eat human junk food.
