Actually, many ant species pray on other ant species.

For example, many army ants, found throughout the tropics, prey on other ants' brood (immature ants, such as eggs and larvae). Some are specialized on invading the nests of other ants and grabbing the immature from the nest. When this happens, it is common to see ants from the invaded nest flee from their home, carrying their young in their mandibles.

Other species have special nest entrances that can be closed with a little pebble when they sense the approach of an invading army ant raid.

These behaviors must have originated in the long history between army ants and other ants, with army ants evolving mechanisms that improve their predation efficiency, and prey ants evolving mechanisms that reduce this damage.
