Winter ants consume only liquids, especially the sugary liquid waste of aphids, the nectar of flowers, the secretions of oak-galls, sap and rotting fruit.

American winter ants, or Prenolepis imparis, are preyed upon by various predators, including:

Predators:

1. Ants: Other ant species may raid their colonies.

2. Spiders: Many types of spiders will eat ants.

3. Birds: Certain bird species, like swallows and chickadees, will hunt ants.

4. Mammals: Small mammals like shrews or some rodents may eat ants as well.

5. Lizards: Some reptiles may also feed on ants.

# data[].attributes.body

Smallmouth bass and several kinds of trout (brook, brown, and rainbow) prey on darters.

Darters usually eat a variety of small aquatic insects such as the larvae of midges, mosquitoes, blackflies, caddisflies, mayflies, and stoneflies, and small crustaceans such as aquatic isopods and amphipods, small crayfish, and sometimes snails. Different species have slightly different diets.

they'll eat just about anything you have in the lake including shad, bluegill, yellow perch, crappie, tilapia, catfish, crawfish and yes, even other bass.

Adult largemouth are generally apex predators within their habitat, but they are preyed upon by many animals while young, including great blue herons, larger bass, northern pike, walleye, muskellunge, yellow perch, channel catfish, northern water snakes, crappie, common carp, and American eels.

# data[].attributes.body
The range of largemouth bass within North America extends from the St. Lawrence River, the Great Lakes, Hudson Bay (Red River), and into the Mississippi River basin. Largemouth bass are also found in Atlantic drainages from North Carolina to Florida and into northern Mexico.
