Canberra, Australia, 1974 Photograph by Robert F. Sisson Pincers poised
and eyes gleaming, a bulldog ant surveys its surroundings. These
aggressive ants, named for their propensity to latch onto objects, are
well known in Australia for their large size and painful sting.

(Photo shot on assignment for, but not published in, "At Home with the
Bulldog Ant," July 1974, National Geographic magazine)    RELATED
