Ants and termites often live in large numbers and are a nutritious food source if you can get enough of them. The aardvark, which is from Africa, is just one species that has become highly adapted to this diet. Their sharp claws and powerful limbs are well suited to breaking into termite mounds and anthills, while their long, sticky tongues are perfect for catching these little insects. They also have a specialised stomach which helps grind up their prey.
