A question about these Army Ants invading a wasp nest.
Ants can walk upside down on ceilings perfectly well so it is no mystery as to how they were able to invade the wasp nest and defeat their enemy. However, carrying away the spoils of war upside down on ceilings is not so easy for ants....cause you know...gravity. My question is: How did the ants decide to build a bridge that allows them carry away the spoils of war and how did they decide where to place it?



I thought about this and I think I know the answer but I am curious as to what others think the explaination could be.

I had a buddy who had an ant problem in his kitchen, so he laid down a bunch of those Raid traps. Worked for a while, but in a few days all the traps he laid had little barriers built all around them. Those bastards are thinking, I’m telling you.

I probably should have used quotes around 'decide' like you did. I pretty much agree with you that there was no thoughtful or deliberate choice. "They just get shit done" is an accurate way to describe them, but it doesn't explain how they do what they did.

These were similar little devices, just made by Raid instead. They literally built a full boarder wall around all of them. I didn’t believe him when he told me and went over to see for myself. It was truly one of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen, really makes you wonder.

This movie called it 50 years ago.

(I'd watch this movie every time it was on while growing up)

Were the barriers made of dead ants? That would be damn resourceful.
