Is it possible that they are walking in a circle? That is the only thing I can think of. Will you let me know the answer when your friend tells you? Do you have any more brainteasers or riddles?

They cant be in a circle because its only 4 ants. and if there are 4 ants, its sorta weird that the 4th one says there are 4 ants behind him. thats what confuses me. but yes i have another riddle. take off the outside cook the inside eat the outisde throw away the inside what am i?

Hey! I have already written this one under the topic "jokes". The 4th ant was just telling a lie. It is a lier!
