Northport, Alabama - Huge red dog, fire ant I noticed the mention of Ma'Cille's in Gordo, AL. Some of the Ma'Cille artists moved 20 miles to Northport, the thriving little art community. Northport was already home to a huge red dog statue, but that wasn't enough for the art-hungry Northportians. Completed just last month was a several-foot statue of a fire ant. Fire ants came to this country through Mobile, Alabama, so it is only right that this state have the official fire ant statue. [Robert Stapleton, 08/08/1999]
