Unlike modern authors, Homer is not quick to reveal his personal beliefs; rather, they come about subtly, through the dialogue between two characters.
Harvester ant. Harvester ant is a common name for any of the species or genera of ants that collect seeds (called seed predation), or mushrooms as in the case of Euprenolepis procera, which are stored in the nest in communal chambers called granaries.
An ant is mostly a primary consumer when it collects its food directly from plant items. But it's also a secondary consumer when it feeds upon carcasses like dead roaches or d â¦ ead rats or even bigger animals. An ant is supremely strong, and it is said, it can carry or pull anything as heavy as 300 times its own weight!
