Hey every one its about time for the cow killers to come out. Im hoping to get a good shot of one this summer. Keep your eyes peeled. These creatures are hard to find and their sting is said to be as painful as being shot by a 22 caliber reifel. Some of you may know them as the Red Velvet Ant.

thanks i never seen one they dont look bad but they are the ones that usually are
so where do you fined them , we dont have the fire ants
Walter Strength in reply to mlgkats’s comment, 6 months ago
Mel they are a very secretive creature. Usualy around sandy rocky areas. You should have them there. They are very shy and you have to really hunt for them.
