There isn't a specific word for an animal that *only* eats ants. However, there are several terms that describe animals that primarily eat ants:
- Myrmecophagous: The most common term used for animals that eat ants.
- Ant-eating: A more straightforward and descriptive term.
- Myrmecophage: The noun form of "myrmecophagous," referring to an animal that eats ants.
Keep in mind: Many animals might eat ants occasionally, but they aren't considered myrmecophagous unless ants make up a significant portion of their diet. Some famous examples include anteaters, aardvarks, and pangolins.
