We stumbled across a long line of leaf cutter ants today. Most of the ants were carrying shreds of leaves or grass several times larger than the ants themselves! Sometimes, leaf cutter ants will carry their loads over a mile to get back to their colonies. The leaves are used as food for a special fungus that the ants cultivate.
