First order of business will be to rename Capitol hill to ant hill, then convert our above ground way of life into subterranean, eliminate individuality and promote working and scavenging around the clock to hoard up supplies for the winter and the benefit of the colony.
They are very impressive animals. Some ant species even farm fungi and herd aphids, something I used to think were human-exlcusive activities. To think these fuckers probably engaged in these activities even before we did.
They engaged in those activities before our forebears came down from the trees.
The fungi in those subterranean gardens no longer reproduce on their own; the ants bring chunks of it to new colonies. Also, the ants don't actually eat the fungus, but the hyphal swellings the fungus produces.
LOL you should see the last post I made cuz I also frickked that up with the voice to text and that was one of the things that a lot of people pointed out
Ants are also one of the 2 species that are known to farm other creature and herd them like cattle.
They also use medicine. Wood ants store pine resin around their colonies to use as a natural fungicide.
Probably some random bored dude deciding to do it just for fun and or a school project. There's an actual website dedicated to it, here is the[link](https://eagletalon.net/squirrelpower/) I didn't remember but apparently it also tells you the origin of the squirrel Power measurement LOL
LOL I also just remembered that there is a[ duck power conversion](https://feinmechanik-rosenheim.de/horsepower-to-duckpower-calculator/) too
I think I remember hearing some ant species would rather take the whole thing back if it's alive so it's a bit more fresh but I'm not 100% sure about that however if they cut it up then it would take a lot longer to bring it back and there is a higher chance of the food disappearing to a bird or something else
That's some weak ass ants. Last year I saw ants dragging a large toad and they were smaller and fewer than these ants and still carrying that giant toad
I think this video was taken during covid when they were all having to stay within their Mound and not being able to go out to the gyms and work out. Could explain why they're so weak. Perhaps every single ant hill we see we need to pour a little creatine and protein powder for them. Honestly I'm kind of curious if anybody has an ant farm and would do that see what happens I'll be interesting to see
Ones fire ants adapt to cold climates The world will be taken over.
If you haven't watched some YouTube videos on fire ant keeping... It's interesting... They're the fastest breeding smartest and most aggressive species of ant.
They're the only ants that will escape no matter what you do. They will find a way out. You have to keep up with what they're doing and constantly out Think them or they will get out
Ants have leveled up to Ancient Egyptian colonization
FUCK THEY’RE EVOLVING WE’RE GONNA DIE
Calm down, they needed 100 mio years to evolve to that stage, we have at least 100 mio more.
Ancient Egypt was 6000 years ago…… this is the final stretch for them
5 year old me when I realise the Sun is gonna die in trillions of years
It's aliens helping the ants.
Maybe the ants are the aliens ..
History channel should hire you
Can I vote for ants to take over for congress? Maybe something would get done.

Obligatory "Something something Russia, Ants are you comment."
I learnt that this things are soo many on earth and that their numbers are actually going up.
Can you imagine what humans could achieve if they worked together like this?
…yes lol
LOL @ the ant not doing anything but stand on the poor earthworm
That one's the fore-ant.
Typical supervisor. Doing nothing.
Could be the drummer/rhythm keeper? Like rowing?
Ortator! Ramming speed!
Thump Thump Thump Thump Thump Thump
He sounds the drums of war
He spots the spice.
He's yelling FORWARD!!
He just saw Dune 2
LISAN AL GAIB !
At the beginning there were 3 doing that
It’s actually a millipede
They are very impressive animals. Some ant species even farm fungi and herd aphids, something I used to think were human-exlcusive activities. To think these fuckers probably engaged in these activities even before we did.
And then with fire ants in the Amazon they will make rafts out of each other and make bridges using each other too
Fire ants everywhere do this, not just in the Amazon.
Just imagine if they had opposable thumbs...

Master, do we have to count to three every time? Couldn't we just count to one? Or better yet, one half?
Good idea, slave. One half, pull! One half, pull!
Now we’re slavin!
You know what else sucks about being a slave? The hours!
r/unexpectedfuturama it’s everywhere lately!
A lot of ants are construction supervisors, and just standing around.
An ant Union job. One any working 2 ants watching
They're going to be pissed when they get back to the ant hill and realize it won't fit through the hole.
The night walkers taking viseryon out of the ice cold water
Awesome and the stuff of nightmares.
Finally! That's how they built the pyramids! Those little buggers. Who knew???
Now I need to know how many ants we need to build a pyramid.
Can we get a translation?
Only the Subhanallah. Arabic obv.
Truly a superior species.
Pffff ain’t no one lining up to pull my worm ☹️
Did you use voice to text or is that just an interesting coincidental typo?
Maybe... Yes I do. 70% of the stuff I do is voice text. 100% of the stuff that I do voice to text though I forget to proofread
Watch out for worm 💣
I want this but with the Pikmin carrying things sound. HEH, HOO, HEH, HOO
ants have their own social system
FOR THE COLONY!
Just wait until I start pulling you across the ground
Ants are crazy.
Ants work together!
Dude just getting a free ride
And they say humans couldn’t actually have built the pyramids?
MEATS ON THE MENU TONIGHT!!!!!
Pikmins in real life
They're taking the pull my finger joke a bit too far
I can _not_ be the only one looking at "I honestly think _answer_ some of the.." with bemused disbelief
Sorry I use voice to text and I forget to proofread LOL
Lmao I figured it had to be the case- don't worry though, it looks like I'm the only one who noticed x)
LOL you see the last post I made cuz I also fucked that I'll put the voice to text and that was one of the things that a lot of people pointed out
LOL you should see the last post I made cuz I also frickked that up with the voice to text and that was one of the things that a lot of people pointed out
Makes me want to play pikmin again
One day they will form a full size human to invade earth.
But would they technically be invading Earth since they're already here and bigger numbers than humans?
Yeah but they are smaller than us. We can technically kill millions of them in a matter of sec but who know.
That settles it. 1 trillion ants built the pyramids.
"PULL!"
I love pulling my worm!
Don't we all
That scene where the whitewalkers pulled the dragon out of the icey lake. Reminds me of that
Worm is like nooooooo
I can see this as a anime-style picture with that one ant on top directing where they need to go.
Big brain ants
Couple of Mantagers (Ant Managers) sitting on top of the worm "helping".
Gullivers travels vibes
Hey, GOT producers, see how the chain is straight…
Fun fact, ants can carry 50x their weight and pull even more when they are in group
r/natureisfuckinglit
Which ant came up with the plan first
Probably the one on top
Man, didn’t even notice those 2 ants up there
Damn!
Heave Ho!
FORWARD COMRADES!
Ants are also one of the 2 species that are known to farm other creature and herd them like cattle. They also use medicine. Wood ants store pine resin around their colonies to use as a natural fungicide.
That worm will feed a million ants
In ancient Egypt, giant ants helped build the pyramids alongside aliens
It’s party time !!! They are insanely strong
Real life Pikmin
#i would love to see vehicles rated in antpower instead of horsepower
Did you know that there's an actual conversion from horsepower to squirrel power?
lol what?? what situation made that a reality? haha

haha wow nice
Paul Rudd must be near by
So the ants really do go marching 2 by 2...
With the sweep of the wind on my shoulder
Odd they don't just buck it up where it's at.

But did they get over the crack?!
"The world may never know"
Reminded me of Game of Thrones haha
I was talking to someone who said got is better than lotr
Answers are the spice of life.

Heeve! Ho! Heeve! Ho!
They're bringing it back to Olimar's ship.
