Hi! Mr. Nature here, with a comforting thought.
Don’t be entirely down on winter: because, if you’ve got cold days and colder nights, snow on the ground, ice hanging from your gutters, and teeth chattering, there’s one thing you absolutely, positively, don’t ever have to worry about. Not ever.
Army ants.
Watch these bugs devour everything in their path, and reflect on the fact that a nice big snowman would stop them in their tracks.
So much for life in the tropics!
