The bullet ant may be small but has a powerful sting that earns it its name. Its sting has been described as feeling like a gunshot wound, causing severe pain, swelling, and muscle paralysis that can last for days. The bullet ant has a venom that contains a toxin called poneratoxin, which can cause the victim to experience shaking and uncontrollable shivering.

Despite its small size, the bullet ant is considered one of the strongest creatures on earth, able to carry objects more than 100 times its weight.

The migrating monarch butterfly has an impressive ability to navigate long distances. Every year, millions of monarchs travel thousands of miles from Canada to Mexico and back, a feat that seems impossible for such a delicate creature.

They navigate their destination using a combination of the position of the sun, their internal body clock, memory, and sense of smell. They can remember the location of feeding and breeding sites from several generations ago. Also, they can detect the scent of their host plant from several miles away.
