In the Animal Crossing series series, Ants can be found at all times of day, throughout the entire year. They swarm over discarded turnips and candy-not fruit, however- and can be easily caught. Despite there being a large group of ants present on discarded food, only one can be caught at a time. They are common. Once one has been caught, the other ants disappear. Ants sell for 80 bells.
Donation
In Wild World
Once donated in Wild World, a trail of ants can be found marching amongst the trees in the second room of the insect exhibit.
In City Folk
In City Folk, ants form a trail along the path on the central terrace of the insect exhibit. The ants emerge from a hole in the wall and swarm over a pile of sugar that lies on the path some way away.
In both games, the insect guide states that roughly twenty percent of worker ants do nothing.
Further Information
Ants, from the family Formicidae, are insects that have existed for at least 110 million years. They are widespread throughout the world and are easily identified by their long antennae, large abdomen and sectioned bodies. There are thought to be at least ten thousand species of ant world-wide.
