The thorny devil eats only ants. It can eat thousands of ants in a single sitting collecting them up with its sticky tongue. It collects moisture via night dew which forms on the skin and is channelled to the mouth through grooves between its spikes, or rubs itself on vegetation in the early morning, thereby collecting the dew in that way.
