Leaf cutter ants have specialized serrated mandibles that they can use to cut up leaf material. They use this leaf material to cultivate a fungus monoculture which provides them with food. They also have a symbiotic bacteria that grows on their exoskeleton that produces antibiotics to inhibit an antagonistic mold that can devastate their fungus gardens.

Adaptations ants have is the ability to live in social environments for survival. Ants are able to live in almost any weather condition but do retreat during cold months underground. Ants are able to work fast to repair damage to the homes after rains or other means of destruction.
