It's so interesting how an animal like the ant is individually entirely unimpressive. Both in terms of physical capabilities and intelligence they are not special or are even inferior to so many other animals. But then as a group they stand out so much in that they are the closest to humans in terms of organization. Offensive and defensive war tactics, agriculture, building large structures to live in, etc. Despite being so far away from us biologically, they are the only animals that share those things with us. Close relatives like Bees are similar of course.

[@ibrahimtuna375]

An interesting thing is; termites, an ant/bee like social insect that has no connection with them (they're a relative of cockroaches which is weirder), is actually better builders than ants. Many of them builds incredible towers made out of dirt to live in millions. I kind of fascinated by them.

[@salsamancer]

Some scientists refer to insect colonies as a "super organism" i.e. a being made of individual animals rather than individual cells. In that case, they are not so close after all

Fun fact: Ants have their role decided since they were still a larvae. The ants feed different types of food to the larvaes depending on their decided role in the colony. For example, larvaes that grow up to become “soldiers” will be fed insects, meat etc; while those grow up to be “workers” or “caretakers” (ones that take care of the larvaes) will be fed things like fruits, seeds etc
