Small but incredibly organized, the ant is one of the most fascinating insects in our gardens. Living in colonies sometimes composed of several thousand individuals, it is distinguished by its solidarity and its impressive sense of collective work.
Each ant has a specific role: the workers build and maintain the anthill, search for food, and protect the colony, while the queen lays the eggs. Surprisingly, despite its tiny size, an ant can lift up to 50 times its own weight—a true feat in the animal kingdom! Through their galleries, ants also help aerate and enrich the soil, contributing to garden biodiversity.
This Papo figurine realistically reproduces the ant: segmented body, mobile antennae and thin legs. An ideal model to complete a collection of garden animals, invent stories about life in a colony or educate children about the importance of these small insects in the balance of nature.
