Explanation: Measuring well over an inch (up to 4 cm) long, this is a bull ant ... sporting jaws that inflict a heck of a bite. Also armed with fine eyesight, bull ants consist of over 90 species found throughout most of Australia which hardly needs any more biting species beyond its complement of venomous snakes.
