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

The Ant in the museum in City Folk

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.
