    Absolutely ants. The sheer volume of every ant in the world working together would be horrifying

      That working together part adds so much to the ants’ advantage. Even if the ants’ entire strategy was “bite lions, no bite ants” they’d absolutely win

    Easily ants. Google ant swarm animal. But not right before bed. There’s a few insects that are evolved specifically to fight ants but everything else is food to them.

    There are an estimated twenty quadrillion (20,000,000,000,000,000) ants in the world. They could wipe out all terrestrial life on earth if they wanted.

    Ants just because of quantity. There’s estimates out there and it’s just ridiculous amounts of ants.

    You know those timelapse youtube videos where you watch ants eating a small fruit within a couple of days? Imagine that, but with it happening a lot faster with so many ants covering lions that you wouldn’t be able to see them.

    Another vote for ants, although that’s partly because I’m a fan of the film Phase IV in which all ant species suddenly start cooperating with each other against humans.
