    No ants on Antarctica. Seems like they missed a real opportunity there. Why did those guys destroy the ants nest? As he said the nest will collapse without a queen, and they were taking her away to a lab. In a place where life is so precious, and difficult to maintain...

    Not gonna lie, a group of white dudes coming to Africa to destroy an ant colony so they can have they can steal a queen and have their own colony to study back home in Belgium seems fucked up, very goddamn expected and familiar. You don't end up with an African country with a Dutch sounding capital out of nowhere

    What about large mammals, like antelopes, jackals, zebras, giraffes etc? How they are adapted to live in the desert? They can't borrow like small insects. And they need much more water then just a fog condensation. Thank you.
