Not like, a poisonous ant or anything, I mean how many times has a singular ant domino effected itself into killing a human. Like knocking a napkin off the table that someone then slips on.

I’m pretty sure there is some evil ant species in Australia that has killed a person or two
Can confirm, ants in Australia are evil.
Though I haven’t done research on this topic, I do have a first hand account of how freaky red bull ants are.
I’ve gone hiking and sometimes I come across them. I usually hike with poles, so I always look before I plant. I planted by a red bill ant once, and it really took offense. It kept facing me no matter which direction I was from it, like it was waiting for an opening to climb my shoe, sock, and get my leg. I have been “stalked” when taking small steps away.
I don’t think they sting, but their mandibles, though. 💀 Not sure if there’s any documented deaths caused by this ant, but it sure would hurt being bit. Same with bull ants. Deaths from anaphylaxis probably, though.
