This is a spider ant.
The picture doesn't really do it justice, but they are at least four times the size of a regular ant and at least twice as fast. And they have really long legs. Their tails kind of stick up in the air, so Jacob calls them Scorpion Ants.
But no matter what you call it, they're weird, and kind of freaky. Neither of us had ever seen this kind of ant before. Just one more experience in Libya.
