    Speaking of the ants being smarter than we think, biologists recently found that honeybees may be able to dream, have short and long term memory, and the capacity to learn.

    • @achristiananarchist2509
      @achristiananarchist2509 Рік тому +40

      That bees can learn and have long and short term memory has been well known for a while. That's why they hover over flowers and stare at them. They are memorizing the appearance and location of that flower so they can find it again later. The dreaming thing is super interesting though. I hadn't heard anything about that. I wonder how you'd even assess dreaming in an insect. I can't imagine they engage in REM and their brain is so different from ours that I'm not sure you could take for granted that activity during sleep is dreaming. I feel like I'm about to fall down a google rabbit hole...

      I mean Asian Giant Hornets and bumble bees have photographic memory, so id not be surprised if others have that as well. Honey bees do remember, since they need to be able to communicate directions to the rest of the colony, as to how much i dont know, but i know its directions and distances at least, probably landmarks as well. Bumble bees will remember key location as they travel, which is why you see them return to some land mark, circle it for a few seconds and then keep going again, in both directions.

    Dinodork here, the skull you've got there for them isn't a raptor's skull- I'm fairly certain that one would have belonged to Abelisaurus.

Really cool to see the differences between the two species; the New York carpenter ants with their distinctive red mesosomas, and the Eastern Black carpenter ants with their larger size and golden hairs on their gasters. It's also been amazing to see the NY ant workers spray formic acid on the arthropod prey I give them; I didn't know this species would do that, but it's been exciting to watch!

    Maybe in the future you could use more ant-related myths like Myrmidons or the giant Indian gold-digging ants. Also, I love it when he gives them a tower or castle or the mouth of a creature so I would love it if you used those more in the future.

    Dude, I don't know how you can make something so mundane as keeping an ant colony into one of the most interesting topics imaginable. You always have me hooked on your videos. It's been a while since I've visited your channel, but now you've got me waiting on the next episode like it's freakin star wars or something. Well done sir. I'm gonna try and visit more often. Your channel is way too good.
