Here's a video (quicktime) of ants that live in the stalk of some plant in the Amazon, and when larger prey climbs the stalk, the ants all bite from within the holes. Once all the legs are taken and the prey can't move, other ants climb on it and kill it. This is the first time anyone has seen a group of ants build a trap to catch larger prey.
