An excellent observer discovered the ant's instinct to keep slaves. He observed that ants with this instinct lived entirely on slaves; without the help of slaves, they would absolutely disappear in a year.
Male ants do neither the work of the male ants nor the females who can breed, the worker ants are responsible for capturing slaves, and do nothing else. They don't build their own nests or raise their own larvae. When the nest is no longer suitable and migrated, the slave ants come to do the relocation and carry the owners between the jaws. What an astonishing thing!
The blood ant is a kind of slave ant, digging up the blood ant's nest, you can find a small number of slave ants. The black slave ants are smaller than half of the red masters, and when the mosquitoes are slightly disturbed, some slave ants run out, and they are as excited as their masters, and they are desperate to defend their nests; when the larvae and pupae are exposed, the slave ants will work with their masters to transport them to a safe place.
Slave ants often work with their masters during the construction of the nest, but they look after the portal alone in the morning and evening; the important duty of the slave ants is to find aphids for collective consumption, and the slave ants are obviously very satisfied with their status quo and willing to be enslaved. This is different from human slaves, who sometimes rebel, and how amazing such strange instincts are!
