I think there's a species of nearctic army ant in Florida that exhibits the trailing behavior.  I forget the species.  

 

Someone correct me if I'm wrong. . .

Also I want to make sure my ants have enough protein so instead of insects could I use meat or seeds?

Trachymyrmex, Odontomachus, Cyphomyrmex, Pseudomyrmex, POGONOMYRMEX BADIUS! Some cool Pheidole, Strumigenys, Nylanderia, Monomorium, Forelius, Dorymyrmex, Aphaenogaster, Camponotus, etc. Just some of the coolest genera in the world. ;) Personally, I think Arizona beats all states in the US ant-wise. :D
