Aboriginal women digging for honey ants in central Australia. Honey Ants are an awesome delicacy by the Warlpiri people for their sweet taste. The ants have a small yellow stripe on their backs and dig deep underground tunnels in areas where mulga trees grow. The ants, full of nectar, hang from the ceilings of the underground chambers.

Unfortunately the government plans to dump radioactive waste "In the middle of nowhere" which could have a harmful effect on the Warlpiri traditional diet and way of life.
