Facts About Ants 🐜 - Secret Nature | Ant Documentary | Natural History Channel

[@eetuthereindeer6671]

The backround music is too dramatic. Its hurting the document. This isn't a scifi action movie's most dramatic scene. Its an ant document which is interesting to just enjoy in peace and quiet :) I very rarely get upset of backround music even if others have disliked it

I was walking my dog on a footpath one day and came across a Bulldog ant. Despite only being an inch long, the ant "shaped up" to me. Imagine doing that to something several thousand times bigger than you. Gutsy little bugger. Their nests are huge too. A hole big enough to put your hand in. ✌️🇦🇺

I stepped on a fire ant nest in Texas when I was visiting. In a flash, they were all over my legs. I tried spraying water from the hose to get them off. Most of them stayed on. I was terrified they would keep climbing up my body. I ran away from them & then rolled in dirt. That worked, so remember it. 🐜🐜🐜

He got lucky because that doesn't usually work. I grew up in East Texas which is home to the largest species of fire ants and you learn to avoid their hills at all costs. The only surefire way to get them off quickly is gasoline.

Nope

[@lawrencequave7361]

ALL dictated by enormously complex chemical and external influences. In other words, ants don't (have to) think; they (not so simply) just 'go with nature's flow'. Humans have a brain which gives them the cognitive ability to chose to ignore what would otherwise be nature's flow--and therein lies the problem. WE are--literally--our OWN worst enemy. A benevolent dictatorship could solve this for humankind, but dictatorships don't stay fair and benevolent for very long.

I believe that to say ants are `self-less' is inaccurate: in so far as we know, ants have no idea of `self' per se. They appear to be more of simple algorithms that act as designed. There is no question of doing otherwise. Has anyone ever showed ants can act differently? I don't know.

[@darrylramsey6232]

Brian Ketelboeter I take that as a positive. They know what there meaning of life is and they don't stray away from it. Unlike us humans many of us don't know what's there meaning of living and struggle big part of there lives figuring out. Ants on the other hand know from birth

[@rayphipps7314]

yes super colony with hundreds of queens check this out kzbin.info/www/bejne/gICUm6CFgsSKedk

[@lunarbubu]

That is actually untrue! It has been shown that different ants in the colony do things differently, have disagreements, etc. They are actually not just instinct, which is a false notion that a lot of us claim about other creatures, they are very aware and know they are present; They change their behavior according to circumstance, like in captivity, and each ant is independent. There was even an account of an ant that was sad she was separate from the colony, in solitude, and when the rest of the colony came back, it looked like they were all hugging and showing affection to the one missing ant at the end, it was so adorable.

[@12345678921580]

They make it seem like a snakes venom is so hard to figure out, when all it is is the acidic part of the digestive system that they inject into thier foos because they dont chew thier food. Human being have the same chemicals in thier stomachs! But due to the fact that we chew our food we dont have to inject venom. Constrictors pretty much crush their food. And those kinda snakes food moves quicker than they do.
