Ants and Their Livestock

Honeydew is one of the favorite foods of ants. There are a number of insects, including thorn bugs and aphids, who consume so much honeydew that they cannot digest it all. These insects are designed so that ants can milk them for the excess honeydew, just the way a farmer obtains milk from a cow. REF.: Thorn bug. Science Digest, Jan., 1985. p. 81.
