The Dracula Ant can snap its mandibles at a speed of 321 km per hour, 5,000 times more quickly than the human eye can blink, making it the fastest creature on earth.
It snaps its mandibles like this when attempting to catch prey, stunning and killing its victims which it then feeds to its larvae.
An adult Dracula Ant is unable to process solid food. After feeding its dead prey’s remains to its larvae, it chews holes into its larvae before proceeding to suck the larvae’s blood like a vampire, hence the name ‘Dracula’.
