The ant belongs to the Formica family.
There are many genera for ants eg Agroecomyrmecinae Amblyoponinae Aneuretinae Anonychomyrma Apomyrminae Armaniinae Brownimeciinae Dolichoderinae Dorylinae
There are about 22,000 species of ants eg Anonychomyrma myrmex
Some species of ants have been observed engaging in same-sex behaviors, such as grooming and mounting. These behaviors are believed to serve social functions, such as forming and maintaining social bonds within the colony.
'Fire ants' generally refer to ants in the genus Solenopsis, or Wasmannia auropunctata (the 'little fire ant').'Red ants' is a common name that is applied to a wide variety of red colored ants. It is occasionally used for 'red imported fire ants' (Solenopsis invicta), but also applied to red harvester ants, the 'European fire ant' (Myrmica rubra), and a number of other ant species. The usage is generally regional.
In virtually all ant colonies the queen is the largest member, and none are larger than those of the African driver ants in the genus Dorylus, measuring more than 4 cm long, males are almost as long and grow upto 3cm!, imagine millions of them running up your leg!.
Black ants with red tails are likely a species in the genus Pheidole, known as big-headed ants. They are commonly found in various habitats worldwide and are known for their distinctive color pattern. These ants have a variety of roles within their colonies, with the large-headed workers carrying out tasks such as defense and foraging.
There is no scientific evidence of a species called "killer saifu ants." It is possible that this term could refer to a specific type of ant with aggressive behavior, but without additional context or information, it is difficult to provide a definitive answer.
A group of ants are called a colony/army of ants
The scientific name for bulldog ants is Myrmecia. They are a genus of aggressive and highly venomous ants native to Australia.
Some species of ants have been observed engaging in same-sex behaviors, such as grooming and mounting. These behaviors are believed to serve social functions, such as forming and maintaining social bonds within the colony.
Fire ants will eat other ants. Army ants will also eat other ants and actually seem to specialize in raiding the broods of other ant colonies.In fact fire ants will eat almost any kind of insect they catch.Ants (Formicidae) are a very broad genus. Asking what do ants eat is like asking what do people eat. It depends on which ants.

There are many species of ant, but the Greek word for ant is myrmex, which is used as a taxonomic genus. Websites about ants will likely list the various species.

Slave-making in ants refers to a behavior exhibited by certain ant species, such as the genus Formica, where they raid the nests of other ant species to capture their larvae and pupae. These captured young ants are then brought back to the raiders' colony, where they are raised to become workers that serve the needs of the slave-making colony. This behavior is a form of social parasitism, where the slave-making ants exploit the labor of the enslaved ants for their own benefit.

They eat mossly harvestor ants( red ants) but subsidize their diet with a few termites and a few other insects. Fire ants are bad, they don't eat fire ants but fire ants are killing the harvestor ants
