Red velvet ant also known as cow killer. It's not an ant but a wingless female wasp.

It could be a velvet ant, which is actually a flightless wasp. If it is furry, orange and black it is a velvet ant. These ants can provide a painful sting that lasts for hours so avoid them. If it looks like a small black ant, only orange, it is probably just a red ant.
This seems like it may be a male Velvet Ant, or Cow Killer, since the males have wings but the females do not.
The Red Velvet Ant belongs to the family Mutillidae. The average life span of an individual in the wild is a few weeks.
Bullet ant is way worse. Its legendary.
