I don't know about the magnitude of intelligence being the largest disparity between a terrestrial and extra-terrestrial intelligence. I think it will be more in the nature and expression of that intelligence. You could look at the ant example in that way. There is intelligence expressed in the activity of ants but it is an entirely different kind of intelligence, consciousness, self-awareness, than found in human beings.
