Affiliate Marketing Secrets

1)
A higher surface area-to-volume ratio facilitates heat loss.
2)
Animals in warmer climates need to move more quickly to catch prey.
3)
More species inhabit warm climates, and smaller size enables a greater number to live in the same ecosystem.
4)
Smaller body size enables faster reproduction and repopulation to maintain a niche in overpopulated warmer climates.

Hopefully in your animal science class, you learned that every animal has it’s own niche, or job in the animal kingdom. They make discovery channel shows about how hard their niche/life is. Out of all the existing ones, which one do you think has it the hardest. In my opinion, would probably be the ant.
Here’s why:
Everyone trying to kill it(Even other ants).
It has to lift things more than ten times it’s size.
It spends it’s entire life traveling one block.
It’s trying to dig it’s home, but it’s soon destroyed by 5-year old kids.
They have to gather food for the leader ant and not themselves.
We’re about a million times bigger than it.
Now that you know my opinion, what’s yours. Don’t say people’s life is the hardest because our life is easy compared to most animals.
