An ant just growled at me
I saw an ant carrying another dead ant across my patio. I crouched down to look at it, and I heard an audible growl! I thought it was my cat, sounded identical, but the cat is nowhere near.

Ants don’t growl, right? And if they did it wouldn’t be that loud and low-pitched..?!

Lil nibba got mutant ants from those 50s movies.

insects don't 'breathe' so they can't roar, the drone probably used a high frequency percussion instrument

Well, certain species can hiss, like the Madagascar Hissing Cockroach. Ants also apparently can make vocalizations apparently.

no point in vocalizing when you can use the pheromone hive mind to communicate at 10x the bandwidth

You make a good point. But that is what the entomologist are saying. There is this carnivorous caterpillar that uses pheromones and apparently mimics ant vocalization to fake being queen and infiltrate and eat them.

How do you confuse crickets for ants?
