Is there a right kind of anthill to sit on?

In my area, the wrong kind of anthill contains anything in the genus Myrmecia, and the right kind contains almost anything else.

If you’re an ant, sure!

I used to play on top of a giant (for a kid me, anyway) anthill in a nearby forest.

That's how I learned that forest ants, at least the local ones, are incredibly docile. I never got bothered by them.
