Photo of CLOSED: Ant queen?  Agressive!

Hello. My dog found this animal on my sunporch (Denver foothills). It was quite agressive, rearing up in a trantula-like fashion. At first I thought it was a spider; then perhaps an ant of some kind? It's mandibles move up and down, rather than side to side. I have tiny black ants from time to time in my house, nothing serious. I photographed and released it outside.
