It’s a question of scale; these five might find this strategy works better if they were trying to bring down an elk. But what could they do with it once they had it immobilized? Anteaters don’t got teeth. And the most well-oiled machine of a wolfpack would find their tactics useless in hunting ants.
I was going to be lippy and add my own over extended tongue twisted comments. But after reading the mouth full of comments, mine would be nothing but toothless. .Thanks to everyone for already having their morning coffee and getting their synpases firing away with great comments.
Tackle an ant hill instead of an ant, and it would work. What one chases out and loses might be caught by another. The group as a whole eats more. Works for sharks.

And I always thought that anteater kings were a myth.(google ‘rat king’)

Are the ant eaters preparing to break huddle?

They’re about as useful as when the cavemen go hunting.

Big deal… I can tie a knot is a cherry stem with my tongue.

How come anteaters can talk, but wolves can’t?

Package is close to pack. Close, but not quite.

You’d almost think the ant was saying it was the season to hunt ant eaters… humans take on bigger prey like that. ;-)
