  Aardvarks are not anteaters. They're more closely related to
elephants than anteaters. As for the Meliphagidae, giant anteaters are
large, reaching almost to the average man's hip at the shoulder, while
most anteaters (like the tamandua) are far smaller (and arboreal,
hardly analogous).

  And that's termites; these are more prone to eat non-ants than ants,
including bees.

  Bears are also omnivores. Also not really analogous.
