Did you know that ants are completely perverted social insects, an ant colony has queens, soldier ants, worker ants, mini worker ants, ant colony society is like feudal society with strict class stratification, not quite understand can refer to the Qing Dynasty society.
The queen ant is like a royal family, except for the need to do everything when raising the first eggs, the days to come are pampered, and this kind of fairy day she can live for decades, there are records that the queen of the ant reign time is more than the average reign time of human emperors, amazing!
Soldier ants are like the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, there is no need to worry about food and clothing, but when there is a war, it is necessary to be loyal to the queen of the ants, charging into the battlefield, the body structure of the worker ants is completely prepared for fighting, there is a pair of strong and powerful jaws, the head is also very large, but the head is full of muscles, used to control this pair of jaws.
Located at the bottom of the ant colony is the worker ant, responsible for taking care of the entire ant colony's diet and living, going out to find food, taking care of the young ants, and even a smaller mini worker ant to clean the body of the queen, the worker ant is like our Han people in the Qing Dynasty, the proper oppressed class, but the water can carry the boat can also cover the boat, the worker ant sometimes determines the future of the ant colony, when the colony has more than two queens, the worker ant will choose to kill the weakest queen, until only one queen remains, at this time the queen can only hide in the corner and shiver, Feeling the strength of the people, the worker ants can live up to 7 years, and they are also the representatives of proper longevity insects.
Ant colonies are also carnivorous and vegetarian.
Vegetarian ants will grow their own fungi, make honey, vegetarian ant life will be more moist, in addition to catastrophic bad weather, or by other carnivorous ants invaded, basically no natural enemies, the entire dynasty can also exist longer, there are records that some ant colonies can exist for more than 50 years.
Carnivorous ants life is much more difficult, when there is less food around, they will continue to move, if lucky, they can find a weaker ant colony, occupy their nest, eat each other's adult ants including the queen and his prince and princess, and raise the young ants of the occupied ant colony as slaves, find food for themselves, when the slaves are exhausted, they have to start a new journey, looking for new nests, of course, most of the carnivorous ant colonies are unfortunate, or defeated by other carnivorous ant colonies and reduced to food, Or die in a harsh environment before finding a slave nest.
Oh, there are a few cold knowledge about ants, ants existed in the dinosaur period, there are more than 30,000 kinds of ants in the world, more than 476 species of plants that coexist with ants, thousands of animals, ants, the proper king of insects in the world, there is no one.
