Nocturnal termite-eating mammals?
Some nocturnal mammals that eat termites include anteaters, aardvarks, aardwolves, bat eared foxes and armadillos. The term for termite and ant eating creatures is myrmecophagous. While anteaters and aardvarks share many similar traits, such as poor eyesight, a keen sense of smell, long tongues and large front claws, the two species are not related. They illustrate convergent evolution, in which parallel traits developed in isolation from each other.
