20 million billion. This is the minimum number of ants that there would be on Earth. This is 2.5 million times more than the number of human beings. Ants represent 20% of the planetary biomass. To arrive at this number, researchers have relied on several census studies that have been carried out on all continents. However, they specify that this is a minimum value due to the lack of certain data. Their final study was published in the official journal of the US National Academy of Sciences.
