Care Sheet: Harpegnathos venator

Harpegnathos venator, also known as jumping ants, is an incredible species with excellent vision that hunts by sight. Contrary to rumors, their care is not so complicated – they only need a regular supply of live insects and proper humidity to thrive.
Note: our Harpegnathos venator colonies have a true queen and not a gamergate (fertilized worker).
