These Ants Use Chemical Weapons | Uphill Battle

↠ Have you ever asked yourself why ants are carrying so much leaves?    • Why Are these Ants Carrying All Those...  

Spring is a dangerous time to be an ant. After waking up from their winter hibernation, it’s time for industrious colonies to get back to work – but first they have to re-establish their territorial boundaries. Filmed in the Jura Mountains of western Switzerland, our video takes you deep into the minuscule world of the wood ant, showing you how these tiny but powerful creatures work, fight . . . and die.
