Yes it does exist, a panda and an ant in one. This is a magical day for human kind and I'm so excited to write about it. In all honesty thoe this isn't just a cute at with multiple colors, its actually a wasp. This wasp has a white head, and long thing hairs all around its body witch is cause for the nickname Velvet Ants. The thorax is black with a white box shape on it, witch is beginning to give the mental picture the name does convey. Something else really cool is that this insect shows sexual dimorphism, in lamins terms in means the male and female look very different and are easily distinguishable in a way. The much smaller females are carried by the males in mating season to nests and one larva is layed. Dew to predators such as ant eaters only about 5% of these baby's make it to life. Soon after they kill their larval host and move on with life. Unlike other aunts and wasps they live alone and are often more active at night. They prefer living in coastal regains like CHili, for the gravel, soal or sand they like the nestle in.
