They were unfortunate that day that a scout ant was crawling by. Once it sniffed them out and sounded the chemical alarm to the army, that was it. I think the worst part is that the venom of these ants didn't seem particularly strong, so that means those little fellas went through a LOT of pain before succumbing. Nature shows it truly is survival of the fittest, period.

[@ExplorationRandomDestination]

This isn’t survival of the fittest at all it shows that life is pure dumb luck. Survival of the fittest is fucking fake when so much comes down to sheer luck. I mean even in a fight a bigger creature could have its neck cut or be maimed accidentally or king of the forest hit by an unlucky antler that takes them down. Pure down luck is what this world comes down to.

​@@LordProteus They don't possess the ability to remove them. There is no part on the chicks bodies they could grasp without killing them. Looked like the father took a swipe at trying to pick off some ants, it could be they possess a painful bite or sting, eating them is probably painful also.

[@edwardelric880]

So sad, their eyes are still closed so they can't even see what's attacking them. All they feel is the almost nonstop bites and stings from the ants, completely helpless. They thrash around from the intense pain trying to get them off but this just agitates the ants more, causing more bites and stings. Baby birds aren't capable of much in the way of facial expression but at 4:02, the agony the chick is in is blatant on its face. Mouth hanging wide open, eyes clenched shut, it's a haunting visual. The other chick whose eye gets injured seems to fade much faster than the other two. Nature can be cruel.

[@Calvodecria559]

Like other animal parents, birds should take precautions when building the nests. This silly mother surely missed out an ant colony nearby. Thus the gruesome end for her hatch.

[@20PINKluvr]

[@thebufoon]

Ants don't eat animals and insects like predators instantly. Their priority is to bite them constantly till they're tired. And from being tired and very stressed, they die. Then they start with taking them into their nest. That's how ants were and always were. Birds aren't that smart to know where the ant nest is. They build somewhere where it's safe.

And instead of helping the birds the person is just filming i saved already 3 little birds two from falling down the nest and another from ants its easy to take care of them the 3 of them survived and are now in the wild

[@michaelcorcoran8768]

All right but then the ants could die and he's just choosing one piece of prey over another prey animal. But the bigger issue is that the person is not standing above the nest holding a camera, the camera is placed there and they control it remotely. These live cams are sometimes on these nest 24 hours a day for months at a time. There are not always people nearby to intervene and intervention should only be a last resort for animals that are going extinct or need help building a population. Fact is the only chance these ants had was if the parents could get there in time. It's not the job of people that film nature documentaries or bird live cams too be their security guards 24/7 in effect it would be probably bad for the survival of the species if they intervene too much. I mean humans could theoretically save every single chick but then they would starve to death because their parents wouldn't have enough food for them all. This is why the parents themselves often kill their own chicks or neglect them or the siblings will kill them. Birds are brutal
