Honest answer: I can’t verify a precise stat about this specific BBC clip, so I won’t invent one. What I can do is add the kind of fact that reframes it, and this one is real: antlion larvae can go weeks without eating, and hotrod ants (Ponerinae-type prey, like the Rhytidoponera genus) are a favorite target.
