Vernon L. Kellogg writes about an ant dragon that he once observed,
thus:
He was an ugly little brute, squat and humpbacked, with sand
sticking to his thinly haired body. But he was fierce-looking
for all his diminutiveness. Remember again that whether a
thing is big or little to you depends on whether you are big
or little. This dragon of the sand-pit was little to us. He is
terribly big to the ants.--“Insect Stories.”
