Fire ants also known as red ants often attack small animals and can kill them. They only bite to get a grip and then sting and inject a toxic into the victim. For humans, this is a painful sting, a sensation similar to what one feels when burned by fire — hence the name fire ant.

If you go travelling and want to do your bit to help those really in need abroad and give them whats on their top needed list, stuffyourrucksack.com let you know what stuff to take. They will tell you whom to contact - legitimate organisations that get little or no help from their government or from local or international NGO’s. This way, you dont have to encourage the children to crowd around you with their arms stretching out for gifts - which may seem like begging.
