An ant's life is so dramatic, it could be a tv series.
Try to keep them as pets
or a movie
It’s called Game of Thrones.

Slug: “why do I hear boss music?”
You could say the ants soiled his plans....
@@zionbaptiste9418 haha.
In case you are wondering, they do not always eat the eggs they loot from the defeated nest. Some species of ants carry them home and raise them. You could say "as their own", but it's more like "as slaves".
Sometimes ants are so human it's frightening.
Slavery isn't unique to humans. It is the natural order to subject the weak. Most species just kill them as dead weight.

Then ants use the grown up "slaves" as breeding machines

Ant Eggs: The Forbidden Rice
Hmmm, Yummy
Extra juice
It's eaten in some parts of the world. Those eggs would be juicy and full of proteins.
Except if your a rival colony then it’s fair game
No steamer needed
The ants putting dirt on the slug shows a level of problem-solving skills that I would NEVER have expected from them!!! This had to come from a single ant getting an idea to use something to soak up that slime, and either knew dirt was good for the job, or experimented until they found the right material. That, or some saw the benefit of it having happened by accident, understood what had happened well enough to want to employ that method again (which also shows planning ahead), and reproduced the conditions. Either way, that is some kind of impressive behavior for such a small-brained creature.
So wild... wow!
God gave them the skills and knowledge to survive
@@summerbrown514 You might want to think twice about what you are attributing to God. Untold and unnecessary suffering since time immemorial. Countless animals blotted out by other animals whose sole purpose is to create more of itself to do the same ad infinitum. Is this really laudable as a design?
Why didn't he just create self-sufficient organisms that need not torture their prey?

Despite them being such simple creatures at their core, Ants are some of the most amazing insects out there. They can perform agriculture, keep livestock, work in symbiosis with countless other species of insect, wage wars, establish borders... and even adapt to handle almost anything they come across. And yet I still get surprised, I had no idea that some species produce "Kings", or that some ants can revolt against unsatisfactory queens. Billions of these tiny, simple insects working together to perform such complex and almost humanlike tasks, and they're so tiny that this happens all around us without us even noticing. (Or them really noticing us!)
Librus some ants also raid other colony’s and kidnaps eggs to raise them as slaves.
They are not simple, they are just small.
Alright Charles Darwin calm down
and they hate termites.
That's why there my favourite insect, along with bees and termites.
I feel there's one guy who's job is only to stir Lasagne to make all the 'squelching ants' sound for the entire series.
Nobody-
Ant in your backyard- "Execute Order 66"
I'd like to give a moment of silence for the camera man who had to shrink himself to record the footage
I wonder how they actually do that. The cinematography is amazing, but I don't understand how they're able to get their cameras down into the tunnels AND get such fantastic shots at the same time.

@@joachimwalle3760 ants are blind and don't notice cameras. If they can't put the camera in the nest they sometimes set up fake nests and get an ant queen to settle there

CHUNKEY!!!!
King termites are the same but at an entirely different level
The final attack felt like a scene from Game of Thrones...cold
That stuff with the dirt and the slug was wayyyy to smart 😬 we're so lucky these things are tiny 😅
I got scared and fascinated at the same time when the ants "came up" with the soil solution.
*too
Logan Zentz no it is right the word too is used when someone says I am going too
@@carsonstasney8586 I am no English major but you are incorrect. "I am going to" is spelled with one o and "I have had too much" is spelled with two o's.
Not that it really matters I just find it amusing when people mix the two up. ;)

@@theworld5466 fuck off may you
Question: How do you get these amazingly well-focused shots without disturbing the ant colonies?
by being god
by being a camera ant.
They have camera ants. And very nimble easy bendy sticks that they put the small ant cameras on the end of the sticks and jus put them down the spare exit holes. Easy access to the main halls of the ant nest
We all know the camera guy is amazing. Surviving asteroids and zombie apocalypse and shit. Ofc he can get amazing ant footage.
interior shots are made using ants in captivity inside a artifcial nest with museum glass
Ants have always fascinated me. I knew they were smart but I never expected to see problem solving with the slug.
Not rly a problem solving. Ants are programmed to soak up anything sticky with dirt
it's swarm intelligence
so when an ant queen get bored ,she decide to create an army ,cool trick
👍🏻😆
Who fuck her

Humans: so what’s it like to be an ant?
Ant: ever play Warhammer 40k?
Humans: yeah?
Ant: yeah.
Ant hill STANDS!
We really need to thank Hank Pym for making this footage possible.
Yes and Ant Man and Wasp
Then some guys drop molten aluminum into the soil and transform the entire ant emperor into an valuable work art
I saw that video.
It’s always done on an empty ant hill
Really? Ho no!
i think that was termites
@@thlee3 : no, it was ants nest under the ground.. termites nest is like a tower can't pour the hot molten aluminium it'll break it up
The slug getting eaten was crazy

He can say it in a way that gets you in at first then gets you deeper and deeper the more you watch.
And he always has the perfect thing to say for every scene
Larvae: What’s for dinner, Mum..?
Worker Ant : yes exactly.
Editor: How much sound effects do you want to use
Director: YES....
This is actually how it sounds
Tech has come a long way even back in 2011.
Recently we even recorded the vibrations of male Jumping Spider mating dances. The sounds are crazy wicked you should go watch some
A lot of the sounds are probsably faked but I have heard ants walking in real life (hundreds of them walking over crisp dried leaves) and it sounded similar
Imagine having your body parts ripped off and eaten and then dying just to get some...you know
...wait how do you do it?
Sounds like me on a Friday night to be fair haha
O_O
20:00 “Leave me here go on- make the coral proud....”

Y'all some funny mother fuckers 🤣🤣
These clips are fascinating, and somewhat creepy in parts. But I've learned to thoroughly appreciate them over the last couple of years.
There's a channel called Ants Canada and the guy whose channel it is, is a real expert in the subject. He raises colonies from a single queen. Those first eggs (in the first video) become "nanitics", and they're smaller and shorter-lived than the future generations. But they're the ones raised by the queen, who turns the muscle tissue from where her wings were attached into a sort of soup for the larvae. She won't eat anything until the nanitics can fetch food themselves.
The channel's owner is so dedicated to ants that he's having a house built with a two-storey "ant room" in it! If you like ants, I thoroughly recommend you go watch him.
Nah hes an asshole gives incorrect info on purpose for sake of entertainment
Ants literally have empires and fight wars... this is so amazing
Better than game of thrones

Baby Ants: "Who you calling a pinhead"
Queen Ant: Im the one charge! You will listen to me!
Daughter Ant: You "were" in charge! Past tense! My time for Queen is now! Matricide!
Slug:aaaahhhhh!!!
The cameraman:most intresting
Who knew ants could have wars
We will call it “ *THE GREAT ANT WAR* “
I mean, "army ants" might have given it away
Ants have been fighting as long as they have existed. The great ant war has been going on for millions of years and it ain’t showing any signs of stopping now.
@@davidbhartnot really, fire ants have nothing to do with fire
"They take everything, including new borns."
Ant: I'll be taking this, yoink!
I once encountered an ant war between larger brown ants and smaller brown ants, it’s so brutal as the smaller ants fought courageously to fend off the invaders, but to no avail. They were rooted out from their nest and dismembered, with heads and limbs littering the ground around the nest. It’s sad to watch but that’s nature. Another thing is spiders waylaying underneath pebbles along the ant path; the spiders would dash out and rapidly tie the victim ant up with silk into a bundle…
"you give me ten divisions of those ants and our troubles here would be over very quickly"

thanks
So true

I just can't imagine the amount of hardwork and time is implemented in each of the videos... Speechless..........
Yes loads of hard work, many, many lives were lost😂
That slug got absolutely annihilated holy shit
I searched “ants” and this was the first result

And now the rains, weep o'er his halls, with not a soul to hear....
This is insane - brilliant - kind of disturbing - better than any horror movie
exactly!
Great video. Complete ant life cycle:- Ant worker, eggs, queen, bee, ant battle field, looting, fighting. 👍👌👏
Thanks for the camera-ant the helped making this masterpiece!
I won't deny that as fascinating as they are, I felt a sudden impulsive desire to "Raid" that whole colony when they were barbequing that poor slug.
just imagine all the ant battles going on around the world right at this very moment.
But to think of it, the ants size on earth is like humans on a sun-sized planet, there's many ants civilization! 😳
Stunning footage as always!
I get a little itchy watching these ant videos but I can't stop either.
2:39 “male *and* pulls off own wing” 🤣🤣
"No no, allow me."
Salute to the tiny cameraman who went in there to film this! Or maybe they are human-sized ants

Who else felt sorry for that slug? Brutal!
The sound of the slug being eaten was revolting😵😫

You must watch monster bugs war.
What a movie, wow the story was great, their acting was very good, the fight scenes vfx are best, wow such a great movie I watched.
Love animal documentaries shows that even small living things can still conduct wars and have a hierarchy system

Amazing how all the Queens dont attack each other for dominance and control
The soldiers and workers do all of the dirty work for them.
@@dayangmarikit6860 So the queen doesn’t die on the frontlines. A queen is useless dead
@@dayangmarikit6860 I’m curious why they prune off queens instead of just having multiple queens like many other species of ants. Maybe resource scarcity? Idk.
@@King_Minos64 its easier to care for one productive queen than for five unproductive
@@King_Minos64 yeah I looked it up and it seems that queens need alot of proteins and when that is scarse, ants eliminate the queen is weaker and can not produce eggs like the other. On rare cases workers go all they way and kill the last queen, dont know why exactly. Workers survive a bit more and then they also die without a queen.
What an amazing ending!!
